🚴‍♂️ “You couldn’t have written a script better…unless your name was Connor Delves of course.” - Phil Liggett on the ABC 7:30 report!

🚴‍♂️ Cycling 🤝 theatre 🎭

For generations of Le Tour de France fans, Phil Liggett has been the soundtrack to the sport’s greatest moments — including Cadel Evans’ historic 2011 Tour victory. So hearing him speak about the show, Connor Delves, and this story on ABC Australia’s 7:30 Report with Courtney Bembridge is pretty special.

🇬🇧 As we gear up for our upcoming UK seasons in Edinburgh and London, we’re proud to keep bringing this uniquely Australian story to international audiences.
