Stumbled on this is he right or wrong to voice his opinion

 

[Keith Oates]

He's entitled to his opinion but it doesn't mean he's right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[yello]

I might not use the same force in my wording but there's a lot there I wouldn't disagree with!

 

[girofan]

Couldn't agree more! With the exception of his comments on Lemond.

 

[Toshiba Boy]

2nd'ed.

Also the Hampsten interview, where they told him he should be on "cycling's Mt. Rushmore" (true, but...weird.)

And the creed feed.

And the ones where they take the mickey out of Vaughters' dress sense.

And the Michael Ashenden interview...
