We've missed the Ambassador on the pod so G gave him a call and we got his thoughts on the Vuelta, what he's been up to, and the lowdown on G staying at his house after the Renewi Tour. Luke and G will be reunited for tomorrow's alternative Vuelta commentary on the Eurosport Cycling Instagram - come and see them from 2:30pm UK time. See you all then.

It's been a while since Luke and G caught up, and boy is there lots to discuss. G's racing hard in Renewi and breaking heart rate records, there's a nuts Vuelta going on in Spain, and Luke's slipping into his comfortable retirement life. They'll also be back on alternative commentary duty for Eurosport next week - keep an eye on our social channels for details of that one. See you all then.

He's not gonna fly, but he's looking forward to supporting INEOS' strong lineup in Belgium. One thing's for sure though: he's glad not to be in Spain. The first week of the Vuelta has been a rollercoaster - excellent for armchair viewing, not so much for racing in 40+ degree heat. With Luke away, G called up Producer George to run through the craziness on the roads of Spain and he answered plenty of your questions from Twitter. We'll be back later in the week with a classic massage table pod from Renewi as G adapts to life back in the bunch. Watts Occurring is powered by Eurosport Learn more about your ad choices.

Remember, Spain is for holidays. Ambassador De Pluski will be flying the Watts Occurring flag in the peloton though and, with G sunning himself on a beach, Luke gave Laurens a call to get the lowdown on the third and final Grand Tour of the season. It all starts tomorrow with a time trial in Lisbon - and De Pluski's roommate young Josh Tarling hopped on the pod as well, to tell us all about it. Can he win the red jersey on day one? That'd be pretty cool. Who's your favourite for the Vuelta? Tweet us @Watts_Occurring to let us know - and we'll be back in a few days to run through the early action.

Would you take G's palmares, or Remco Evenepoel's? It's become a tricky question after everyone's favourite little bastard did the Olympic double last week. What a fella. Luke put that to G on the pod as the boys dug into all the action from the Olympics - and there's a lot to catch up on. We're also entering full on planning mode for our live show at the Lowry Theatre in Salford on November 8th - and to make Producer George's life a bit easier, he asked the listeners for their suggestions and got the boys to rank them.
