The 2026 Hertz ProVelo Super League reaches its conclusion after five intense weeks across Australia, a season shaped by fire warnings, wild weather, crashes, rising stars and the deepest field the league has seen. In this final episode, Matilda Raynolds and Matt Keenan sit down with the newly crowned champions to unpack how they made it to the top.
Sophia Sammons reflects on a season defined by resilience, from ambulance rides in Tasmania to slippery chaos at the Q2, and how she balanced cross country travel, Melbourne time sleep cycles and the pressure of leadership to win the SBS Women's League.
Olympic gold medallist Ollie Bleddyn joins to discuss his selfless teamwork, his rise as one of Australia's most versatile road talents and his ambitions as he heads to Europe.
Matt Wilson, the architect of the league, lifts the curtain on a season that battled fires, storms, medical shortages and last minute reroutes, yet still delivered the most competitive racing to date. Angus Calder wraps the year with his PSL Pulse, sharing the stories and unseen moments that shaped the 2026 narrative.
The Road to the World Tour signs off with a celebration of the riders, teams, volunteers and fans who made the league what it is, and a look ahead to the Australians now heading overseas to chase the next step in their careers.
