And so building a bridge, which is a wonderful thing, which will take years, doesn't make the news in the same way as the falling down of the bridge.

And that short...

a lot of activity in a short time is what attracts the human attention.

So with soccer or football, but that's its real name, you've got this universal, short, dramatic and highly energetic activity with goals that last for a second or so.

Whereas with the cycling, you're looking at it like a long-term strategy.

It's not as theatrically as obvious and they've built up what they're able to do

over a long period of time like the footballers, but also they deliver it over a long period of time.

And if you look at them doing it now and then you look at them in 10 minutes and an hour and the next day, it looks still the same.

So you don't get that sudden change, that sudden impact, that big leap in change that attracts the human attention.

We tend to respond better to things that change rapidly.
