Chris Horner is torching knuckleheads and murdering everyone's name

My favorite podcast is The Cycling Podcast but they need to find their feet after the sad death of Richard Moore. Moore was kind of the glue.

Unfortunately, I agree.

Great breakdown of yesterday's finish. I learn a ton from this guy.
And all the obstacles and dangers in yesterday's finish - ridiculous!!
Have to say its just part of the scenery when I'm watching the race but when you see it the way he presents it, man so scary

The analysis is fine, but the delivery is exhausting. Somehow he thinks its best to put all 15 minutes into one long sentence where he is not allowed to make a pause or change the tempo, volume or intonation. I understand that he tries to be energetic as a contrast to many sleepy commentators in the sport, but it has the same effect on me.

Horner is painful to listen to.

There's a hole in my daily habits and heart where LR and Horner used to be. I don't know what to listen to anymore.

Chris Horner does a great job. You should hear his stories about that stage in the 2006 or a certain stage in the Vuelta. Very entertaining & informative.

Yeah that pod was particularly enjoyable as well as his climbing lesson.

my favorite Horner story wasn't actually from him, it was from an interview with the former assistant DS for Mercury Viatel (Whit Yost) who was hired as assistant DS at the age of 24, and recounted Horner teaching him how to do a proper sticky bottle

I remember Chris Horner, Gord Fraser, Henk Vogels literally sort of teaching me on the job. You know, Horner coming back for a bottle and saying, “No, no, no – put your elbow here. Hit the accelerator just as I’m about to take it. Now I’m going to hold on…” Sort of coaching me through it as we went.
