Just realised I forgot to record the Tour and I'm out tonight.
If you've got Sky, just set it through their website
That would involve having my sky box hooked up to my internet/telephone line.
and if you did, you wouldn't have this dilemma0 -

I think the signal to record comes from the satelite not your phone line. You may have to have it connected to first register for the remote record thing. Either way, I would be trying it in your position!0 -

My Sky box has to be plugged into the phone line or it doesn't work - presumably to communicate with them when ordering pay per view movies, updating subscriptions and stuff like that.0 -

My Sky box hasn't been plugged into the phone line since the day it was installed."I have a lovely photo of a Camargue horse but will not post it now" (Frenchfighter - July 2013)0

Why wouldn't you have it connected to the phone line (just curious)?0

I'd love to say it's because I don't want to be monitored by the evil Murdoch empire but actually it's because there is no phone socket anywhere near it and I can't be bothered to have a try and hide a long run of cable all the way from the kitchen."I have a lovely photo of a Camargue horse but will not post it now" (Frenchfighter - July 2013)0 -

fair enough. I'm in a similar situation but opted to run a long cable round.
Back to the racing... how long before the break gets caught. Final climb I suppose?0 -
How long until the intermediate sprint?0

Whats to scream about? Anyone would think it hurts! :twisted:0 -
what I was saying about Bertie having friends and favours to call in..
From TiralongoThe Italian added that he would be at the Spaniard's disposal, even if the two are not racing for the same team anymore. "I ride for Astana, and he rides for Saxo Bank, but I remain his gregario. He always says: 'With Paolo, I have a tenth man in the race.' And it's true, I always keep an eye out for him. When I can, I help him, I protect him and I pull him to the front in the peloton."0 -
Cav first in the bunch at the sprint, then Tony Martin, Rojas + another HTC0

Rode over Horquette, albiet from the other side, on a Sportive a few years ago... really narrow and the descent is through the kind of forest you can imagine a bear emerging out of... There's a really scummy bit of road that goes up up again before you get into the forest too, was slippy with leaves and such when I rode it. Also some cattle grids :twisted:
It feeds out onto the bottom of the Aspin."In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"
