This fellow seems to be full of bile and anger and intent on ranting about Beaumont, rather than telling the no doubt inspirational anecdotes from his trip. He says he wants to raise the popularity of cycling, I think if anything he makes cyclists sound like a bunch of cnuts.
Well done on having the balls to go for such a challange, and completing it, but perhaps you could chill out a bit!
+1 He has turned himself into a bit of a ranting knob.
People are inspired by a person's acheivement, not the people who have backed them to try it. Whinging and moaning about the person that you've beaten is a bit pathetic really and doing it under the banner of Not For Charity right from the out is just egotism pure and simple.
Beaumont inspired me, in part, to try for things like the Paris-Brest-Paris. This guy just inspired me to call someone a cunt.
