    Accepting Pain with Mads Pedersen
    Apr 21 2026

    The very first episode of Half Wheeling takes a deep dive into Mads Pedersen’s painful comeback.

    After crashing on the first race day on February 4, 2026 - suffering a broken collarbone and a fractured wrist - Pedersen returns against the odds to deliver an extraordinary spring campaign, finishing top 10 in every classic and top 7 in all three Monuments he contested.

    This episode unfolds as a documentary-style podcast and montage, where host Anders Mielke follows Pedersen and Lidl-Trek from the day after the Tour of Flanders to the defining moment of the spring - Pedersen's dream race - Paris-Roubaix.

    With special thanks to Eurosport for race commentary from Paris-Roubaix, and to Lidl-Trek and Mads Pedersen for their access and trust.

    Host: Anders Mielke

    Featuring: Mads Pedersen, Claus Pedersen (father), Mattias Reck (coach), Jeroen Heymans (mechanic), Anthony Lafourte (soigneur), Jens Hinder (doctor), Michael Schär (sports director), Mathias Norsgaard, Mathias Vacek & Tim Torn Teutenberg (teammates)
