Ned Boulting has watched a lot of bicycle racing. He has to, after all, since he's the voice of the Tour de France, among other races, for ITV4 on British television. It stands to reason, then, that Boulting should have lots to say about the stories, results, polemics, and minutiae that defined the past year of racing. That is perhaps why he found himself as the editor of The Road Book, cycling's comprehensive almanac.Boulting joins host Dan Cavallari on the Slow Guy on the Fast Ride podcast to give perspective on why the Road Book offers a unique historical perspective for the casual fan, data enthusiast, and even the journalism crowd. Boulting also gives his impression as to why it took this long for cycling to get its own yearly almanac — and who precipitated the drive to provide almanacs for years past, before the Road Book's inaugural release in 2018. (Hint: he's won a bunch of Tours de France and his name rhymes with, um, Chris Froome.)Be sure to check out our other podcasts, videos, and live streams, and subscribe wherever you get our stories.
