    I've heard words that sound like "hamster" and "sky dive" and I'm sure I heard the words "Malcolm Elliot" as well

    Ladies Tour of Qatar has been going on. Three sprints, Lizzie won the last and took the overall.

    Nasty finish in #DubaiTour Friday. Last 200m kick up with 17%. Looks like a Spanish matter. Valverde, Lobato, Purito.

    Good to see some racing. AG2R domestique crammed full of bottles. Wonder why that chap in the lead group isn't on an S5/S3?

    Arty mirage shots: riding on a river of oil.

    Top notch idiomatic Arabic from Carlton.

    Disappointingly, he's switched back to English on YP's stream.

    You could see what was going to happen! What a stupid idea :roll:

    Thankfully looks like they've removed any similar pieces!

    Not sure if believable time gaps but saying 1.35 with 15km to go. Mancebo looks super smooth but the guys behind are lined out.

    All cracking off. The Katusha rider is not Rodriguez as the pointer shows - probably Spilak.

    That Canyon handlebar branding makes sense, but it's a bit naff, isn't it.

    Vicioso it was. Boom goes past him. Mancebo has a little lead.

    BR 2nd fav Cav showing his climbing skills. Just needs to work on the sprinting ones and he is all set for MSR.

    I think the likes of Cavendish will fare better than some expect on that finish
