33 | Tour de France Femmes | An Australian Preview with Gracie Elvin

Hellllo folks. Happy Friday!

Our team is so thrilled to be launching a mini-series today, The Forward Line's very own Tour De France Femmes: An Australian Preview. In the lead up to the TDFF, we will be releasing daily episodes. We are speaking to a bunch of Australians who are currently in France including riders, commentators & spectators!

For our first instalment, we are sitting down with Grace Elvin **squeals** Grace is a former pro-cyclist, an Olympian, a current SBS Tour Commentator and one of the Co Founders of The Cyclists Alliance; an independent union that represents & provides holistic support to women in the peleton. This was a cracking episode to kick off our series and despite her demanding schedule and some touch-and-go French hotel wifi, Gracie was relaxed & ever the professional. Her takes are insightful, very approachable if you are a new cycling fan and above all else, she was a total ray of sunshine to interview!  To keep up with Gracie's TDFF adventures, make sure you are following her on Twitter and Instagram. Remember to tag us too so we can see your comments & enjoy the show!
