    I find the "interesting" facts section to be a waste of broadcast time personally and would rather watch racing. Ive no interest in tedious drivel about some skidmark a famous rider left on the road and cant wait for the flat stages to be over and the real challenge of the mountain stages to begin.

    Why not set the turbo trainer up and do a power interval during each ad break? :D

    Trying to find the highlights on ITV from 7-8pm but it's only 3 minutes long- can't see the broom wagon show either- am I missing something?.

    Found it. The broom wagon is online at about 5pm but only on a wednesday - here's the first one

    I reckon that ITV4 work very hard for us TDF viewers to get the advertisers on to that event. After all it is a specialised event for mainly cyclists to watch. How many of them do watch it ?
    If there were nobody wanting to advertise...no TDF. You should praise these advertisers for putting their money in to giving you the programme.

    If you want to be a strong rider you have to do strong things.
    However if you train like a cart horse you'll race like one.

    I was using the steephill site and viewing the stage profiles and I find the amount of mountain stages included in the 100th edition of the tour to be a bit disappointing to be honest............but stage 18 is gonna be where its at with 2 ascents of alpe d`huez and I cant wait for it.......pity the highlights are going to be an adverts feast (sigh)
