This is the third part of Lionel Birnie's conversation with Shelley Verses about her experiences working as a soigneur for the 7-Eleven team at the 1986 Tour de France. She was the first woman to work as a soigneur on the Tour and her presence on the race attracted a lot of attention from the media. If you've not listened to part one yet, you can find it here. That concludes our Chapter & Verses mini series for now.
