It's more interesting than watching it on TV :P
You haven't got Jørgen Leth slaughtering Froome's riding style :-) It's great stuff, there's a man who takes his cycling aesthetics seriously!Warning No formatter is installed for the format0 -
Corsica is definitely on he holiday list for next year. Those mountains are fabulous.Correlation is not causation.0

Those bands on Cav's jersey are just weird. Is there some issue with trying to fit sponsors logo on the front and avoiding the pockets on the back?Correlation is not causation.0 -
That Belkin kit looks better than I thought it would“New York has the haircuts, London has the trousers, but Belfast has the reason!0

Ha ha ha Inspector Carlton of the European Fisheries. Naughty fishermen and their illegal nets. Prepare for some angry French fishermen blocking the route tomorrow now that their forbidden fishing has been rumbled by the Tour.Correlation is not causation.0

Just tuned in and doing ITV 4. Paul in full history mode, I think if you watch a whole TdF on ITV4 it qualifies as an Open University module.0

OMG Andy was not hanging off the back for once! :shock:Correlation is not causation.0

Right, just got rid of 8 rugby watchers - all disappointed, so no Ozzies here. But all cyclists ironically, who would rather watch paint dry than watch even the TdF on tele!
Watching on europsort,but as usual will reserve the right to turn over to ITV4 when the adverts come on, and as we speak here they come and I switch and am hearing about watchtowers and Moors and Genovans.
So I take it that apart from Froome involved in an early incident nothing has happened.
Visited Corsica once on a day trip from Sardinia. Agree it is beautiful.
Finally agree we need a seperate spoiler thread for each day. Some people will want to dribble over the previous day's action before they see the evening highlights of the new day. Also, it is time that all the pre-race cr@p chat is cast into the dustbin of history.0 -
Did you know that Corsica is the most mountainous of all the Mediterranean islands? Well it is.Correlation is not causation.0

No contribution from Orica, lightweights.0

You can use it for checking basics but not as a citable source in papers, this is what I tell my students. To be fair I wouldn't have put Corsica as the most mountainous, so you learn things everyday. Now I need to see a league table of the most mountainous Mediterranean islands.Correlation is not causation.0 -
Cav looking stoney faced. Deep rims and skinsuit....0

How could some of you praise that GB jersey?!0

To be fair it looked alright from the front...
Still I'm claiming Cav for the Netherlands.Correlation is not causation.0 -

I love it, yes it could be improved with the bands going all the way around but the white background makes it a bit World champ-esque.
Not keen on the Belkin kit. Europcar win the green kit champs0 -

Why don't you claim Froome, then you can be "Above The Cound"0 -
Belkin have learned a lot from Sky re clarity of logos. Very clear and readable. Very neat.
Love the GB jersey being there, and especially with WC bands.0 -
