Yeah, it was a pity. Just like Matt and Simon, Emma had her own style. And she was instantly respected by the guys. If memory serves, she was faster at the Taiwan KOM race than Simon and Matt. The next generation of presenters doesn't mesh very well — yet. Olli is a bit too goofy for my taste, and the two other ex pros haven't managed to win me over yet.
A 36-25 road bike would have put me off for life.
I tried watching a few videos, but they were neither technical enough to appeal to the gear heads nor entertaining enough to appeal to casual viewers. Clearly, being a presenter and/or entertainer is a skill. And GCN made huge improvements over the years as far as their video quality is concerned — and I mean this just from a technical perspective even.(still better than GCN Japan's presenters.... but I give them a break since they have a smaller, less experienced team.)

Oh yeah, they were hardcore back in the day. Some great stories. Eddy Merckx 140km solo breakaway, when already leading the Tour by eight minutes.How about 47-24? (That's for mountainous rides; elsewhere it would be higher.) I kid you not.

I don't know. I bet in my heyday I could dope with the best of them!No point in comparing any of us to the TdF pros, regardless of vintage.
