Simon Yates Interview

[Uncle Jam's Army]

I saw yesterday's stage of the Tour of Britain and saw 21-year-old Simon Yates of Great Britain beat some salty pros in the uphill finish to Haytor; very spectacular talent. Then I heard the interview he gave after the stage and I swear he was speaking some language other than English, I don't know what it is. Here is a clip from a prior interview he gave: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQmYoq98S3Y

He sounds like he's from Lancashire, if I had to guess. Maybe Manchester but sounds more like Lancs. (I have a close friend from Burnley.)

Oh yes, I assume you were joking, but that's pretty intelligible English, I'd say

No, I'm not joking. I just asked my wife, "can you understand him?" Her response: "half of it."

He's got a voice made for braille. :D
