I too was wondering about Al. I must say, I sure won't miss him. unless he was playing dumb to appeal to the uninformed cycling audience, he certainly didn't impress me witih his knowledge in cycling. let him go back to women's gymnastics. he's got the big voice, but nothing worthwhile to say. :Yawn:
I like the new guy - I don't know his name yet - but he seems to blend well with Bobke. I like what I've seen of him so far. they've got pretty good chemistry and seem to get along well. I think it takes a certain personality to work with Bob Roll and this guy's got it.
to be clear...I like Bobke... he's definitely quirky with the hand waving and such, but he's a fun character and does understand cycling.
