Would it be so much trouble to actually have someone give him some tips on how to survive outside of Kentucky? IMHO, he represented much of what Europe/rest of the world sees as the "ugly American tourist". He was disrespectful to the interpreter during press conferences, showed a complete lack of understanding of language barriers in nearly every country shown and if you look hard enough when any of the non-US riders are in the same area during press conferences, they seem to be smirking at his lack of tact.
