nikki Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Maybe they should open the phone lines and let the cycling public ask the questions of Mr till. That would be intersting....
GLuvsMtb Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Also thought that they should have talked more about the ballsup at SA's with the logistics, but it got swept over with "lets focus on how great the racing was". Comeon Andrew - grow a pair!
mallo Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Strange everyone worried about the pro guy, why not the 16 year old
Ceres Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 (edited) Apparently the Tour Of South Africa will have lekka coverage.Highlights package daily.AND LIVE ON SAT & SUN!! Howzat!! Â If its anything like the epic coverage it will be crap. How can you only have half an hour highlights every evening for probably the biggest mountain bike race in the world? Â Then you get a whole hour of tour of Qatar?????? Â Can someone explain this to me, we get half and hour coverage for local and hour for international!!!! Edited February 9, 2011 by Ceres
'Dale Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 The coverage of the Cape Cobra was really pathetic.They only showed the last few 100 metres of the ladies' race... Uncool to our women cyclists!
Tumbleweed Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Then you get a whole hour of tour of Quatar?????? Â In HD nogal!
Ceres Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 In HD nogal! Mabe other countries get a full hour of epic.
Guest Big H Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 The coverage of the Cape Cobra was really pathetic. Most things coming out of the Cape Colony is pathetic
fandacious Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Most things coming out of the Cape Colony is pathetic including the freestaters and the gautengers? Because they did originally all come out of the cape colony
Fish Eagle Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Mabe other countries get a full hour of epic. Â From what i remember last year, all the overseas guys get WAAAYYY more epic coverage then we do. they said something this year about a few more days coverage but who knows.Coverage of local cycling like the Epic friggin sucks
TNT1 Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 including the gautengers? Because they did originally all come out of the cape colony  Not me... I'm from further north. I only came here for your jobs and your women.
firewolf Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 I would rather watch 30min of international than 2 hours of local road racing. Local content is lacking in depth, commentary, and the camera angles are mundane. I enjoy the Giro, especially on RAI, with the machine gun fire Italian.I enjoy the hours and hours of The Tour, with the "Phil and Paul Show"; who is going to be able to replace these guys when the time comes? They bring the tour to life!

Agreed, some of the local races are poor, but on a big one with huge international players, you would think the coverage and local footage would be better...just disappointing thats all.
scotty Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Also thought that they should have talked more about the ballsup at SA's with the logistics, but it got swept over with "lets focus on how great the racing was". Comeon Andrew - grow a pair! I dont believe so, the man to speak to and get answers for is Greg Till who he mentioned will be on next week. As far as logistics go he mentioned that besides the Ladies and mens Elite races the organization was extremley poor.
Airborne Posted February 9, 2011 Author Posted February 9, 2011 I bet the sponsors for the Tour Of SA are a little nervous right now.
