Work must be pretty bad if watching 200 guys riding along the most boring looking road in the planet beats it.

Yeah but it's the start of the year, so it's 200 guys riding along a boring road... in brand new jerseys!

And Cav vs Boonen for the first time in a while.

Tidy, will have to get the V+ programmed ready.

I have heard, elsewhere that Eurosport are covering the Tour of California. That'll be a first. I wonder why they've made that decision? :roll:

Could this be a first meaning that we are actually going to get some half decent coverage of a lot of races this year. :shock:

Vs covering it live in the US, aren't they?

I've heard Levi has a new water carrier? Anyone heard this?

I notice there's a 5min Planet Armstrong magazine program on just before the start of the Tour of Qatar on German Eurosport ( To tight for Sky). Is the Awsome american riding the tour of Qatar too??

Because they're a profitable business who know a gift horse when they see one and aren't going to look it square in the mush in a falling ad market? FFS there are people who have to make a living out of the sport of cycling, it's not all discussing the relative merits of the Giro compared to Le Tour. :roll:

I like the way people shoot the messenger around here. I didn't have to pass on the news. Thought last year's T of C was great.
Some people appear to have no sense of irony.
I usually get a lot of info on where and when events can be seen.
I won't bother to let people know around here, now.

I would love a V+ but as an existing subscriber I dont qualify for one of the many deals to get new people on it

Doobz

hey jimmy why not call customer relations and explain that you need the V+ etc and if they cant offer you some sort of deal you will think about going to sky even though you have no intention of really going. Its worth a try? Its deffo worth a shot

Ask them anyway, I was an existing subscriber, but still got the half price installation offer (£75 instead of £150). It's worth a try.

I do this for any phone contract , if you just happen to mention you're thinking of leaving they wil loffer you free stuff to stay. Also works to say you have a friend who works for a particular company (Sky, for example) and that they can offer you X amount of stuff for £Y per month.

I thought that the ToC was great last year and it will hopefully be as good this year.
Even better if Eurosport are covering it as I watched it all on that cack cycling tv last year.
