Tejvan – The mechanics do get forgotten about although pro mechanics do get a share of the spoils when their rider wins .

Junior – I did enjoy it deep down . If the current set up was there 10 years ago the 3 you mention plus the likes of Robert Power and Donal O’Halloran may well have been pro tour riders !

Although it’s good to hear professionalism is finally hitting cycling Ireland – you’d have to wonder what Fitzy, Ray, Deccie Lonergan et al would have done with this new fangled setup back then eh ?

They kind of get forgotten about; but, they certainly seem to work long hours. Interesting read

You’ve burst my bubble, im shocked and saddened !!!!!!!
