Long interview (in french) of Christophe Basson. He is known for being the only clean guy in the peloton during the festina/armstrong era.

From 2024 Zwift Academy winner to 2027 WorldTour rider, Emily Dixon just continues to level up.

Still only 19, Emily has signed a two-year contract with the CANYON//SRAM WorldTeam after two seasons with the CANYON//SRAM Generation continental squad, marking a significant milestone in her career and the realisation of a long-held dream.

In this short chat, Emily reflects on the exciting news, the experiences that have shaped her development, and what lies ahead as she prepares to take on the highest level of the sport.

As a team that has always prided itself on taking a fresh and innovative approach to cycling, it’s particularly rewarding to see Zwift Academy talent flourish – reinforcing a belief in looking beyond conventional pathways to discover talent.

"Zwift Academy has not been cancelled," the spokesperson told Escape. "The next edition of Zwift Academy will be the 10th anniversary. Taking a year out gives us the space we need to properly re-launch the program. We want to make the 10th year the biggest yet, with a clearer focus on talent ID and a better Zwift Academy Finals production as well."

So hopefully in the coming months more news?
