Dunno, but this time last year I was on a two-day compulsory
computer course at work. Computers went down for the day.
Classroom's projector big screen was looking redundant. "Who
wants to watch the cycling?". It happened to be the Tyler's
Pau to Bayonne lucky day

 

Seems like a shame to me that cycling has been removed from
C4. It was while watching the Roche/Delgado battle in the
late 1980s that I first got hooked on cycling...

If it was more accessible it might make cycling seem more of
an attactive proposition for others who may not have
otherwise given it a second look.

Oddly enough, yes. Though the possibility exists that he was
being operated by remote control from a secret bunker under
the Corporate Headquarters of Evil Squirrel Global Mega-
Corp, Inc. Why else would an apparently sane person leave a
perfectly good Nut Mine to go and work for the Overseas
Development Agency?
