National Road Champs

Can I just have a teeny moan that while the men’s champs were televised at 7 on Saturday evening, the women’s were televised at 12.05 at night. Why not show them both in the same programme? It’s not even as though a load of nobodies are competing in the women’s event!!

because no-one is interested in women’s sport.

HTH.

I wish the above post wasn’t the reality.

No one interested in the current world and olympic champion? No one interested in arguably Britain’s most sucessful ever cyclist? Let alone Silver olympic Time Trial medalist, winner of the Montreal World cup, winner of the Tour Feminin. Or Lizzie A, upandcoming star of track and road…

Bloody disgrace.

because no-one is interested in women’s sport.

Your forgetting also that no one at all is interested in cycling, in fact most people i know play tennis in their spare time, or play golf. This is why there is really busy forums for amature tennis players, and there are loads of golf club shops in my town. and on any given saturday you can see loads of kids of all classes up the local downs practising their swing!

Oh hang on is that right?
