Welcome to the Domestique Cycling Platform. We are The Voice of Cycling and have the ambition to co-create the ultimate cycling platform with fans, creators and pro riders.
Michael Storer jumps into the Domestique Hotseat with Aidan Burgess after one of the most active and talked-about performances of the 2025 Tour de France.
In this episode, Storer opens up about what it’s like to be the guy Julian Alaphilippe rides for, and how he navigated leadership status at Tudor Pro Cycling. He talks about his decision to leave Groupama-FDJ, the difference real support makes, and the role of Fabian Cancellara inside the team – “more ambassador than manager.”
There’s also plenty of Tour talk: his view on Tudor’s aggressive race strategy (he didn’t always agree), the moment he realised UAE had ridden all day only to decide not to win, and his information that Pogačar backed off winning stages to avoid upsetting French fans.
We also get into some of the quirks of pro cycling, like being asked to race with a Tudor watch on your wrist, and what it’s like sharing breakaways with Quinn Simmons. Spoiler: no beef there – they actually got on well.
It’s an honest, sharp and surprisingly funny look inside the mindset of one of the most combative riders in the bunch.
