It's also worth pointing out that cyclists have above average income and are more than averagely likely to own houses, cars and just about anythign else apart from satellite TV - and I bet that's changed now the Tour is on ITV2 :-)
What's odd is that ITV2 are still running their shatteringly downmarket adverts through the TdF coverage.
Yes. Interesting, the adverts which are run through the TdF. Most of them are shatteringly poor (I watch little television and very little commercial television, but I think of television advertising on the whole as being slick, clever, and usually aimed at being aspirational). And there's nothing targeted at the sort of people who ride bikes and are interested in sport.
One of the ads on Eurosports TdF coverage was for an executive jet plane - Dassault something or other. What does this signify?

They're trying to get Simon Cauldwell to buy one, I guess (billionaire owner of phones4u, etc. Cycles to meetings in London from Stoke)

Ah, so not the cycling holiday reporter as I first thought when I saw the name (unless he leads two lives and spells his name slightly differently so he doesn't get confused).
