Show Notes

Cem is the man behind the successful fundraising campaign to ensure equal prize money in the women's and men's Strade Bianchi this weekend. The campaign was a huge success securing even higher prizes for the women than for the men. That's a strong signal to the UCI, race organizers and sponsors. Listen to Cem tell us about how the campaign came about, what the reactions have been and what the next steps are in the journey towards gender equality in cycling.
