Bike tour great, announcer awful

I would like to comment on the Tour of Alberta, which in my view has been a wonderful undertaking. With one exception: The finish of each race day. This exhilarating climax is largely spoiled by mega watts of verbiage delivered by a frenzied loud-mouthed commentator. He is a study in bad taste and exaggeration.

Where did they find this guy?

OK, so it’s free entertainment. Or is it? As citizens of this fair province, we put up the lion’s share of the cost ($3.5 million). That gives us a voice.

So for all the people who felt verbally abused by the above buffoon, please speak up.
