See Billy, that is the part most of us don't understand but wish we did. Need actual ex competitors doing the announcing so they can bring us into the loop with the current racing technicno, like Steve Machett and David Hobbs do with their F1 broadcast on Speed. I actually do watch it,... not that I understand itOriginally Posted by Triathlete
Thats funny...all the cyclists and triathletes I know hate the announcers! They just want to see the race. I find them entertaining.
I think the problem for most non cycling enthusiasts is that they don't understand the concept behind cycling. They just think its a bunch of guys riding their bikes fast. They don't understand that there is a team aspect. That the attachs, chases, domestiques are all for a goal wheather it be to get a stage win for there sprinter or climber or to get there GC (General Classification (overall)) guy where he needs to be.
