Episode 5 - Phil Liggett, The Voice of Cycling - a podcast by Mass Participation World

The  production of today's edition of "The Aid Station" with Phil Liggett,  The Voice of Cycling, was an endurance event in itself which took almost  a week to complete due to him being stranded in a remote game reserve  in South Africa with limited connectivity.



In this entertaining  edition Phil shares the parallels of the challenges he experienced last  year following the death of his dear friend and co-commentator for 33 years, Paul Sherwen and the impact of COVID-19 on his life in 2020.

 

He talks candidly about the impact on the cycling calendar. He believes  "it will never be the same" and questions how many of the Pro teams  will be able to survive if there is an extended lock-down. He also  wonders how the pro riders will be able to be fit enough to ride the  Tour de France if it is able to go ahead in August.
