Cycling Commentators

Listening to the latest edition of the Life in the Peloton on The Cycling Podcast feed, my view on commentators has changed. Keenan explains why the Tour is so boring given that they are talking to a non-hardcore audience.

Even the interview with Phil Liggett done in 2018 was an eye-opener (had to go back to find it and listen to it.

So with the above considered, us cyclists expecting them to not be boring is a bit unfair - at least my view has now changed to appreciate them a bit more, or understand why they say the things they do. Dan Lloyd did his first commentary on Saturday, as lead BS talker, and some took to Twitter to give him a roasting - a bit harsh, me thinks.
