This week the European Pro racing season kicked off in earnest with Paris-Nice, the Race for the Sun. With the race, comes the return of the play by play commentary of Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwin and all their unique metaphors. Like anyone who watches coverage provided by this duo regularly, I’ve often had their voices in my head on tough rides or when I’m climbing or riding particularly fast around town.

This week’s short puts that common occurrence to film and portrays a Portland commuter “resplendent” in the maillot jaune with delusions of grandeur. This is very well done and be sure to watch to the end where he gets podiumed at work. Enjoy.
