PREDO PROFILES #4: DAVID W aka MANAGER

For the month leading up to World Cup Predos, we will profile the runners and riders in a series of intimate interviews. This episode meets David W, who dropped out of Europredo when in a strong position...

PREDO: They call you Manager. Do you think you will manage to win World Cup Predo?

MANAGER: I haven't seen it, so I don't know.

PREDO: That's a cryptic response, David. Care to elaborate? 

MANAGER: At the end of the day I can only hope my boys do what I ask. If they do that then there's belief we can go a long way. But I can't comment further as I haven't seen it yet. 

PREDO: What do you need to see?

MANAGER: The incident we're talking about. I was having trouble with the zip on my big coat. Once I get to see it, and if it's favourable, I'm confident we can go far.

PREDO: Who do you see as your main Predo rivals?

MANAGER: I'm having trouble seeing them too, could you recommend an optician? Erm, Bren Riley. He's proven difficult in the past, and given he has glasses and contact lenses; he sees things much more clearly.

PREDO: Finally, David, what do you make of the allegations made against you in recent months?

MANAGER: They're completely true. But now's not the time to discuss those in detail.

PREDO: Thanks for your time, Manager.

MANAGER: No, thank you.
