Modern professional cycle road racing is terribly dull, 99% of the time.

Pro cyclists should be able to consume unlimited doses of OTC substances, the sort of thing Joe Public can buy from any pharmacy.  Per Bode Miller, Olympic and World gold skier.

I think it always was. It's just that you didn't see every second of it on TV like now. It was cycling journalism that was brilliant and exciting.

I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

Yup.

Then again, my cat would be a better Bond than Roger Moore. He looks great in his dinner jacket, likes to charm the ladies, and is a skilled killer.

Watching the traffic on the M25 is more entertaining than watching Formula 1 racing. 
Or vice versa, but not by much.

Sean Connery wasn't very good either, and hammed it up as badly as Roger Moore.

Objection!  Statements of fact aren't iconoclastic.
