I saw this and am excited but I can't find a link anywhere to whom I should contact to get the data! Anyone know?

Doobz

well they seem desperate for coders to implement it but no contact details

Found the link but it's not working yet:

I just opened the mytracks link... and it looks like it's operational now! It's showing Grabsch and Sivtzov rolling round Rotterdam - presumably just loosening / warming up prior to the start of today's stage.
The power cadence data could be interesting during the sprints!!

EDIT: Actually this must be nonsense - I'll go back to sleep - they would have started today's stage by now. I hope they haven't got lost, or perhaps had their bikes stolen??

Yes, it's working now! Amazing to see them live on the road and see the watts, cadence, HR (although Cav isn't wearing a HR monitor I notice). And it's cool to see them moving on the road!

Either Eisels GPS needs recalibrating or he's spending most of the stage riding through adjoining fields.

Looks like Cavendish and Renshaw are off the back, relative to the rest of the team.
