disclaimer: I haven’t watched it yet, but the LRP guys are excellent, and many posts on twitter suggest that this interview has changed their preconceptions about Remco for the better.

hahaha, like that Average Rob video I sent you, he's just a super cool / likeable guy outside of the races, I can't understand why I still don't want to cheer for him in the races. It's not even like I want to like the underdog instead of the guy dominating the field because I liked Pogi even when he was crushing everyone else.

I just hope these videos show the actual "haters" that he's not the arrogant prick you may think he his.

I just don’t like his name. Remco….. who names their child Remco. 
sounds like a discount store 

he’s a damn fine human and an excellent bike rider but Remco…. Jeeeejaaazuzzzzz y …Y…..y.y!

Ok, have now watched.

I'd recommend giving it watch (even in chunks, it's quite long).

Benji & Patrick really know their stuff, it's really nice to watch an interview where the interviewers are that clued up and knowledgeable.

Remco comes across quite open, I definitely like him more now than before. His thinking about riding & racing also comes across nicely in the long-form interview.

I feel the same about Froome.

I don’t dislike him, I just not a fan; even after reading his biography.

Great PR campaign then!!

Well, what a balanced, well-measured interview!
 

Watched the 1 hour 40 min interview largely uninterrupted, and Remco impressed me greatly. New found respect for the young man.

Rohan Dennis’ crash in the ITT, 400m from the finish. No wonder he was so p1$$ed with the cameraman.
