I agree, there should have been more coveravge of the ACTUAL competetors
in the race, not just the reporter who knew very little about the sport.
It was amusing to see a beginner dealing with the very problems I
am sure I myself will be dealing with when I start, however, I do not
forsee myself starting out at Tevis! The show would have been far more
informative had they covered the people who really know what they're
doing. Hopefully there will be more coverage of the sport, maybe on the
sports networks like ESPN, etc. in the future.
