    Does eurosport have:

    TDF
    and/or
    Vuelta

    This year? If ITV has vuelta and BBC has tour I'm not interested, but if I can't watch the vuelta I think I might grab it.

    Eurosport has all of that, every stage live I am pretty certain, and a proper length highlights program in the evening.

    To my knowledge BBC have never had the Tour, back in the day it was C4, recent years it has found a home at ITV4.

    The Vuelta will be on ITV4, but only a 1 hour highlights program, which with adverts, and punditry, probably amounts to 35 minutes of actual racing footage.

    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    My mum, who has never had an interest in cycling, was apparently forced to watch the Tour a few years ago by my daughter (who would have been 7 or 8 at the time). Ever since then, she's been a devoted viewer; apparently it's the scenery...

    It's the same for me on that link, but the gift option shows the £29.99 deal.

    Quest (on freeview channel 37) is currently showing the Eurosport highlights programme of the Giro each evening at 10. I'm quite enjoying it, so hoping they'll do the same for TDF and Vuelta.

    Woke up to an email from Eurosport saying I had unpaid items in the basket so I went back in this morning and both options were showing despite the offer ending 23/05 so I managed to buy a pass on 24/05. Can see me having to up the data allowance on my mobile.

    Not directly cycling related but there are plenty of cycling magazines amongst the 2000 mags with back issues also available.
    The link should take you to a deal with 2 months for the price of one, you can also register up to 5 devices on one subscription which costs £7.99 a month.

    As someone who loves a peanut butter, salt free "marmite" and jam/marmalade sandwich or two before or after a ride, thought I's share this spot after ordering some myself (if you search site, there are crunchy and smooth variations, 4 1Kg tubs cost me less than £14 with free del).

    £349, that's the price they were ~10 years ago.

    48/17 is a bit brutal though, for non-experienced singlespeeders, especially in hilly areas!

    I hate those have to create an account web sites. The amount of marketing I get from Sport Pursuit or whatever it;'s called is 3 times, Ribble, Evans, CRC, Rutland and Wiggle put together.

    Not sure how much of a bargain this is, but the Pro Lite\105 equipped model can be had for £1249 - full carbon frame:

    First Ribble I have genuinely desired!
    *I won't be buying one though, despite the stunning colour scheme.

    I was browsing in Bespoke Cycling Canary Wharf at lunchtime (in the Crossrail building ) and they have an 'up to 50%' sale on Castelli stuff as they won't be re-stocking

    It's mainly S/XS gear left but plenty of women's kit on offer as well as medium male Gabba II's. Worth a look if you are passing.
