Abysmal ITV Vuelta Commentary...
I put the ride commentary on mute, and cover up the image for the post-race analysis. God awful, annoying, and amateur. Is it just me that finds it bloody annoying?
Is it just some kind of cynical plot to make Boardman's contributions look epically interesting and insightful come the Tour again next year?

The CUK members' own stories about their travels in the mag make me wonder whether road.cc could built up a bank of readers' favourite routes? It...

Boardman is brilliant at getting the point over. It's all about presentation and showing the benefits to all.

Was a stocking-filler type thing but always handy - reflective spoke straws. (They're not reflecting as I turned the flash off.)

To add to the comedic potential, I really hope said chef was dressed in whites, including a toque blanche, and armed with a whisk and cleaver.

Don't open at Edinburgh Fringe with that one.

overall the commentary was ok(knowledgable etc,).....but the guy needs a phil liggert or someone to help cos he's just soooo boring to listen too. and youre right about the damn ads as well!
I like him. He's really knowledgable and considering he's on his own without a wingman to play off he's doing a fantastic job. Better than Harmon IMO
totally crap whomever he is... Monotone aussie accent sounding like it's some antipodean autocue gone wrong and mispronouncing every effing name in the peloton.
Mowvystaa?
Movie-fucking-star you knob! You're not Spanish, especially when you pronounce every Spanish rider's name a different way every time you mention them! Go and watch this for a year then come back you twunt-at least then you'll be a bit more engaging!

Then there's the sodding adverts...
I have resorted to watching Eurosport
Carlton Kirby is bad but not as bad as whoever he is on ITV4.
Any idea how to stream Eurosport from Sky Go?
I'd quite happy give over one of my computers to stream it for guys on here everyday
