    Does he actually need them - or is it another chance to plug his sponsors ?

    I think it was a plug... The lenses didnt seem to have much magnification...


    BTW... very cold for the TT - only 8 C and with the wind, it feels 4 C ....

    Pretty sure he does wear specs sometimes, but agree most likely a Wayne's World gratuitous product placement (they are sort of cool mind).
    Why the flip is Busted Bertie all over the preamble to the show? He is in disgrace, don't remember Eurosport asking Floyd for his race tips for le Tour.

    Bernie Eisel fastest so far

    that corner Jack B just took looks to have water on the granite setts - right on the apex - could be a problem

    amazing - very relaxed atmosphere as the crown prince and his party just wander down the finish line with riders racing by

    Did i just see Ian Stannard in about 150th or something? Just in front of Benats Inxausti? I thought he was a good time trial list, did he crash?

    You must have mis-seen it. He's 10th so far 11.09. Inxausti is 9th.

    You know what I've seen don't you, their race number. Im just being a buffoon. I could claim it was in italian so there, but no, idiocy prevails.

    No surprise that the first of (5?) Sky Riders who have already left, Cav is the first they show.
