More Obree, Less mansell. But they'd have to make this week about TdF and Olympics... I'm not judging until week 3.

Dire thus far. As above though, they're going to have to bang on about Wiggo and the olympics this week.

The poncey London cafe and bellends in cycling caps are spoiling it.

Not bad, at least someone's got the balls to make a show to cover all types of cycling.

If you can do better why not pitch it to the TV execs yourselves and see how you get on.

But
For Graeme Obree subtitles please press the red button now

They reckon the box hill climb of 150metres is going to challenge the best riders in the world. It will be like riding in the velodrome

I know he isn't but Gary Fisher looks like a steriotypical German.

hopefully future programmes won't be in that cafe. Maybe they should do it in different cycling related cafes around the country, next week could be at cyb visitor centre and have an MTB bike bias.

Only highlight for me was when Obree said " look wobbly" as his top cycling tip

Live setting in cafe doesn't work. Mansell is blood boiling, fisher too much a legend in his own mind, obree sounds drunk (I know he has had loads of issues, but does the casual inspired by wiggo viewer?).

Toe curling and unwatchable, so if there are any good features in last half I'll miss em. Finally getting around to the chores I've put off for last 3 weeks...

I've seen better telly but absolutely support a show about cycling on the tv at last. Graham Obree is brilliant, and so is The Fish.

Would the show convert any non-cyclists?
