Mathieu van der Poel, Sir Bradley Wiggins and Taylor Phinney will appear at Rouleur Live at the Truman Brewery on Brick Lane on Thursday 12 November, the first of three days of the cycling show run by Rouleur magazine.
The event runs from 12 to 14 November. Day tickets cost £30, covering every stage talk, film and the expo floor, and under-16s go free with a paying adult, according to Rouleur.
Van der Poel, the Dutch rider who won the road world title in 2023 and has won Paris-Roubaix three times, will be interviewed with his long-time riding partner Freddy Ovett from 8.15pm to 8.55pm. “Thanks to our good friends at Zwift and Canyon, Mathieu van der Poel will be joining us,” Rouleur said when it announced the appearance, IDLProCycling reported.
Thursday’s main stage
Wiggins appears with his son Ben from 6.35pm. Phinney, who retired in 2019 and returned to the track this year aiming for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, is on stage with his wife, the rider Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney, from 7.25pm.
The evening opens at 5.45pm with riders from Team Amani, including Ashleigh Moolman Pasio, and ends with Breakaway Live, with Orla Chennaoui and Adam Blythe, from 9.05pm. Matt Stephens and Hannah Walker host.
The show was called Rouleur Classic until it was renamed Rouleur Live. Tom Pidcock, Marianne Vos, Lotte Kopecky and Ben Healy have appeared in past years. Line-ups for the Friday and Saturday are on Rouleur’s website.
