Great analysis Joe. The fundamental challenge with the current model of cycling as a sport is that the "value" of ad dollars (sponsorship) is low compared to other mediums. The TdF is great for eyeballs on screen but the amount of spend can be put to much more concrete channels and mediums. Hence, the need for passionate benefactors - interally in a large corporation (kitchen supply, etc) or an independent billionaire. Part 2 is you proposing how to fix it!
