    Yorkshire's 4 counties, not A county.

    Antoines de Caunes minus the charm is the bloke who does RadioTour according to inrng. Well he's certainly not got the presence for live TV broadcast that's for sure.

    I tuned in for a minute. What a load of annoyingly sterile dull crap!
  • First time I've watched a team presentation. It will also be the last.

    I hope these tickets were free.
    Cheapest were £45

    Are you sitting down Frenchie?

    They were 50 to 100 quid a pop.

    I got as far as katusha then had to turn it off; most goddamn awful thing I've ever watched.

    Bet the DS's are chortling away (just like we are to Carlton Kirby) on those long, flat, windless boring days through northern France.

    And it's still one of the 2 greatest team presentations of all-time.

    Antoines de Caunes and Alan Partridge would have been the dream presenters IMO.

    This thread was far more entertaining than the show.

    Jill Douglas and Sebastien Piquet?
    Might as well gone with Kirk Douglas and Nelson Piquet.

    Last year in Corsica, one of the Radioshack (I think) guys nearly ended up in the sea coming off the boats bringing them to the presentation. A bit more of an effort has been made this year.

    I'm loving it... but then again I like to watch Phil & Paul for the Tour. It reminds me of Christmas Telly in the 70's
