Gotta support a cycle show & they’re bound to read this so a bit constructive criticism rather than just slating it may help it develop into something good?
Fair point,and I do support it and will keep watching. My constructive critisism
1 – Too much chat, not enough substance, with only half an hour it needs a strong structure.
2 – Please don’t patronise (how to put a helmet on your head), less gloss and that safety bit could have been really informative.
3 – In fact 90 seconds a week on safety could actually be very valuable from a public service point of view 1 week, lorries, next week – roundabouts, third week – catching drivers eyes and clearly communicating with them. I felt you wasted that bit, and 60 seconds up front with a silly introduction that just made me dislike the guy presenting it
4 – Olympic road race bit, as said above introduce your riders, give us a map of the route you’re riding. Give us a sense of the challenge. That segment just kind of stopped with no conclusion.
5 – Rather than a rag tag group of mixed ability maybe you could have got a local road group to race 2 laps of the course. Proper road riders, who know can say how the hill will play out in a race from a knowledgeable point of view.
those are bit negative, so positives
6 – Heck you’re trying something new. great stuff. Please don’t give up, please play about with the formula.
7 – You do have a compus mentus adult presenting it, not some kid using hip words and trying to be ‘down’ with me. In that regard the tone was bang on.
For more idea please see Rob Warners course rides for last years Downhill World cup, there’s segment in there, hopefully your journalist attempted the mega??
