Looking for a gift for a cycling enthusiast ? This might be the answer . Wed 1st July 2026 . £19.50 - click the link .On the eve of the 2026 Tour de France, Carlton Kirby, the Voice of Cycling, shares illustrated inside stories and frank opinions from his 25 years’ covering the sport.
In a funny and revealing evening for all cycling fans, Carlton will reflect on his front-row experiences from the Tour and other big races – plus the lessons he’s learned from life on the road, as a bon viveur in budget hotels across Europe.
Carlton is maybe the last in the line of the great character commentators – cycling’s answer to cricket’s Henry Blofeld, F1’s Murray Walker or darts' Sid Waddell. He has been in the commentary box for a golden age of British cycling and the evening will also include stories of his not-always-happy dealings with stars including Bradley Wiggins, Mark Cavendish and his own gantry partner-in-crime Sean Kelly.
This is a chance to see one of TV’s most entertaining commentators and raconteurs in an intimate local venue.
Carlton will be in conversation with former Procycling magazine writer Duncan Steer.https://www.settlevictoriahall.org.uk/eventsandshows/carlton-kirby-010726
