Carlton Kirby, the Voice of Cycling, shares inside stories and frank opinions from his 25 years’ covering the sport.
In a funny and revealing evening for all cycling fans, Carlton will reflect on his front-row experiences from the Tour and other big races – plus the lessons he’s learned from life on the road, as a bon viveur in budget hotels across Europe.
Carlton is maybe the last in the line of the great character commentators – cycling’s answer to cricket’s Henry Blofeld, F1’s Murray Walker or darts’; Sid Waddell. He has been in the commentary box for a golden age of British cycling and the evening will also include stories of his not-always-happy dealings with stars including Bradley Wiggins, Mark Cavendish and his own gantry partner-in-crime Sean Kelly.
This is a chance to see one of TV’s most entertaining commentators and raconteurs in an intimate local venue.
Carlton will be in conversation with former Procycling magazine writer Duncan Steer.
