Great to see all the continetal races Endura are doing this year....they've got a great website to follow them, which is updated regularly....and a twitter feed.
Dave Clarke is also riding (think he was the rider in FFs video at the back of the peloton @1.10ish).....one of my favourite British riders
I rode with him two weekends ago at the Tour de Nock yay! Bit quick for me up the first climb though! 0 -
Fair ride from that by Ricco considering he is suffering from kidney failure!........guessing that blood transfusion helped :twisted:0

Cheers for that Frenchie...

It sucks that there is no coverage for this race.. Been sitting on france 3 trying to figure out if its gonna even be on as a highlights package..

Some lovely riding around Pertuis and Bonneiux (sp). Brought back some good memories. Cheers FF___________________

Generally they have Saturday's and Sunday's stages on live, but it might depend on the rugger.
OT Watching that vid reminded me how much I miss speaking French. I must watch more French news this year. I must I must I must.0 -
Steephill.tv are saying 'highlights of later stages' and 'no live coverage'....like you say, rugger is on etc....suppose its all subject to change though0

Brief review of today's final stage up Mont Faron - features some Irish fella speaking pretty good French (better than me anyway)0 -
Just realised that Martin was 3rd yesterday. Hoping he can take the win today.
Highlights from yesterday - why do all the French smaller races have rubbish coverage - the same in Spain have much better.

Its crazy. You see from the highlights how big the crowds are at the finish and you would expect with the French riders doing so well they would have better coverage..
Maybe next year they will get their finger out.0 -
Cummings placed well at 7th.
VS have put in a good showing.Contador is the Greatest0
