    Yep, me too, I'm basically watching a hooky stream of something that I actually legitimately pay for :roll:

    Under 5km to go, Weening out front with a group of 10 chasing. Henao looking good

    I think there's a OGE bloke (Weening) off the front by about 30" to a mini chase of eight or so led by a Sky rider (Swift/Pate?)

    I think...

    Oh my I cant believe this. What the hell is going on with Nibali. Wiggins as well but then he isnt a motivated chap this year and has zero form or race legs.

    Nibali has clearly been enjoying himself since the Giro

    Uran lost 6.19
    Wiggins and Nibali lost 9.13
    Scarponi lost 16.43
    Szymd lost 28.36

    Not sure why some of these people bother turning up. Not sure if we are ever going to see Szymd smash it up Liquigas style ever again. Lots of young guns up there though.

    So as I was wondering how on earth I confused Pate with Henao earlier - turns out the former still hasn't finished, 35mins later.

    I reckon it's time I sent my CV to Eurosport.

    No other riders in the photo but 0s time gap?

    Anyone know why, without fail every year, the HD picture on the Tour of Poland looks much better than the HD pictures on every race? I'm including the Tour de France in that too.

    Maybe the UCI have appointed the same firm to do the timings as the one that did the Olympic road race?

    I will try and watch the Polish coverage tomorrow, because they will make far more sense
    than Kirby did, today.
