CyclistCyclist Magazine Podcast: Zoe Bckstedt Why I love Sundays in HellThis week on the Cyclist Magazine Podcast, Robyn and James are joined by WorldTour pro Zoe Bckstedt. Born in 2004 in Pontyclun, Wales to British track champion Megan Hughes and Paris-Roubaix winner Magnus Bckstedt, there were only two ways Zoes life (and sister Elynors for that matter) could have gone cycling or cycling. She burst onto the scene as a teenager, winning multiple junior world titles in road, track and cyclocross, before turning pro with EF Education-Tibco-SVB in 2022.The following season saw her big move to Canyon-SRAM-Zondacrypto, where she took her first pro win a season later with a stage at the Simac Ladies Tour. A string of top results and showings has followed across all three cycling disciplines, but at just 21 years old, colleagues, managers and pundits are all sure of one thing: Zoes best is yet to come.In this episode, Zoe talks about how her multi-discipline abilities have converged on Classics specialist; how dad Magnus and mum Megan have made her the rider she is, along with the British rain; why, despite the chaos and carnage, Paris-Roubaix is still her favourite race; and just how difficult it is to play boardgames in a family thats so competitive.Zoes chat begins at 7:38.Listen toZoe Bckstedt on the Cyclist Magazine Podcast now on Acast Check outall episodesAlso available wherever you get your podcasts Related Posts Cyclist Magazine Podcast: UCI rules, design evolution, and why bikes are so expensive, with Pieter Potters Cyclist Magazine Podcast: Brian Smith on being National Champ, racing with Lance, saying no to EPO, and snakes in showers Cyclist Magazine Podcast Episode 25 The Backstedts' Roubaix dream Cycling Spring Classics 2026: Race dates, Monuments, cobbles and live TV guide This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.
