@leggy_blonde ...I've noticed that as well. :/
@croft That's a big factor, but you'd think it would be in their interest to capture a wider audience with more diversity, no?

I'd second that comment from pacef8. Emma Pooley, was such a breath of fresh air when she joined the team.

I liked Emma, but Manon is great as well. A bit awkward on camera at first, but now she's great! Hoping she sticks around.

I daresay Emma Pooley has better things to do with her life than comment on bike races. :)
Just looked up her Wikipedia entry, and realised I didn't know how much she's won in duathlon and triathlon.
Top opportunity at GCN to work on a new project focused on pro bike racing.
Knowledge of cycling is pretty important, being organised too...
You'd have to move to Bath/Bristol area, but this is a great opportunity if you're interested in working in the best sport in the world, and at the buzziest media house:
