  • Hmmm I wonder who will win. That Boonen is looking pretty good at the minute, I would say a Sky rider but they have a a tendency to mess their tactics up.

    Well that went well - first thread and get the p**s taken.

    Since I don't pay Murcoch for my TV I have to make do with poor feeds or ITV4. Am I the only one sad enough to watch stuff after the event? I would have been happy enough to have been alerted to the many free crumbs I miss.

    Hi there, like you I don't pay Murdoch, but ended up watching it on some dodgy stream through Steephill tv (not too bad, no complaints - http://www.steephill.tv/ - it was free!). Thanks for the heads up, we all know the result, but at least I can catch highlights from the start.
    Carry on posting.

  • Don't think it's gone wrong, has it? People can still be alerted to Roubaix in the schedule and watch it if they've missed it or whatever.

    Anyway, my money is on Cancellara! :wink:

  • I will watch, (thanks) for one - I only saw it on a poor stream on the day, and certainly wouldn't have picked it out of the ITV4 schedule otherwise.

    Are you on Virgin? I had there package that only had the same channels as Freeview - a bit of bargaining and an extra pound a month will get you Eurosport...

    Seems that people are taking the piss out of ITV4 for showing it so late afterwards, not you for telling us its on......

    Thanks for posting.

    Yeah we know the result but I've just but a cup of coffee on and I'm going to while away a hour watching.

    IIRC there was some sort of petition to influence ITV to show live the events they seeminly had the rights too as part of the TDF deal......

    Much appreciated, thanks for letting me know, live streaming and even YouTube these days is painful due to broadband service where I am so this is vwelcome.
