Why does someone need to be an ass before they are considered to have a personality?

Perhaps character would of been a better word.

Beaumont showed very little of any kind of emotion in his program, reporting the same things in the same tone for every country visited. Would of been nice to get a feel of what it's like to cycle round the world, rather than just man on bike goes fast, runs through days happenings.

Usually people have to earn their ass-like personality over time in their profession. To be so young and ranting like he does wont get him very far.

Perhaps, but riding round the world is hardly novel, thus for it to be interesting it needs more, in blog form or on TV.

I'd rather feel something either way than be left cold.

Just in case people confuse what I posted, I don't dislike the guy but after reading some of his rants I feel like he lets his aggression/jealousy/immatureness get the better of instead writing some better comments (seeing as he claims to be a writer/politics man).

"I'm not so competitive a person to believe that anyone's achievements are made lesser or greater on the basis of speed."

what a strange thing to read from a RTW record-breaker.

Would be great to see a good crowd there to see him off

Not for me. I am suffering from RTW record fatigue.
