Wanna know why Walmsley is popular? Because the star athletes in this sport are SO boring. Heck, they're so boring that we are all obsessing over two high school students running (Nico&Matt).
Then comes along confident Walmsley, whom is an entertainer, that is not afraid to put himself out there.
Meanwhile, you Boomers (that part is a joke) scream blasphemy that someone is an entertainer in this sport! How dare he!
So in summary: Before you scream, "loser Walmsley fanboy" --- I will say I am not a "fanboy". I'm a fan of this sport. You are a fan of boring athletes that are dive bombing this sport into empty stadiums and no TV contracts. Good work Boomer (again, that part is a joke). This sport needs a re-awakening if you want to see well-funded races and coverage in the future. Athletes such as Walmsley is part of how we get there.
