    Luxury? It's a necessity, isn't it? :wink:

    Just watched the highlights, not bad. Imlach and Hammond anchoring, Hammond giving good punditry. Can't fault ITV4 in giving cycling a platform despite what you might think of the Monday night programme

    Is it that awful drone of a voice Matt Keenan doing the commentary like last year ? - if so it's back over to Kelly & Harmon.

    I think it's Anthony McCrossan & Brian Smith on ITV4 this year.

    For stages 1 and 2 on Eurosport it's Kirby and Kelly (Harmon is away doing a ride with Wiggins, and returns on Monday). Having said that, I didn't think Carlton was actually that bad today (he even managed to identify some riders correctly). You could still almost hear Sean talking through gritted teeth though.

    If it's a drone - it's McCrossan.
    At first I thought it was someone who'd had a stroke doing an impression of Murray Walker.


    Some while later, I subscribed to cycling.tv: 20 quid up my shirt for nowt, So now who's the schmuck?

    Still trying to learn about cycle racing then after all the work Kelly has put him through. ??

    No change for Kelly then as you will hear next week with Harmon.
