    Any NEW links apart from sportlemon as i dont fancy the bangkok chickboy coming up on screen every few mins :mrgreen:

    must be something to do with your browsing history :wink: . Thankfully I've not yet encountered a Bangkok chickboy on my screen

    No No its only Alan Partridge who likes that sort of stuff :mrgreen:

    I spoke too soon, the same ad has just appeared on my screen.

    Love Italian race directors, others just bother with what's going on at the front end, where as the Italians love to stick a camera in the face of the most recent rider to get dropped from the bunch.

    Is there a low def crappy stream of this somewhere? I'm watching in HD but they seem to be focussing on slow-mos of Tommy V gurning. Not sure I kan take 50km of that....

    What with the fighter and the tickler, you're having a Macedonia with the French today.

    Tommy actually stands a pretty good chance, over 3 mins now with 36k to go.

    This race is over since the top of Ghisallo... Its a relatively easy run to the finish from Ghisallo, except the last climb... which isnt so long

    The RAI feeds all seem to have switched to F1. There's a French feed on Cyclingfans.com , but you have to wade through a trauckload of unhealth pop-ups to get there

    This should really be an avatar bet. Much more gentlemanly than a pecuniary wager.

    Thanks for posting the feed Mad Malx.

    I've never seen TV spend so much time on the radio. Must have serge Gainsbourg on a loop:

    No one wants to ride with Costa. Must be those white shorts in the rain.

    38 seconds with 13k to go. 3k climb then 10k descent/flat.

    Tommy probably should have used those gels rather than throwing them away after a long handover from the team car.

    According to CN Tommy has blood dripping from his chin, so looks like he may have crashed.

    Prediction:
    Rui Costa rode his guts out for Movistar setting up Valverde and Quintana to pull the perfect 2 vs 1 manhoover on J-Rod. Valverde wins. Sick.

    I heard he may have crashed in a tunnel, and if so, it partly explains why his lead dropped so quickly.

    J-rod is getting a fair bit of help (probably unintentional) from the motos around him. None in front of the chase 3.
