    pretty looking road

    Great 1st stage. Shame about the falls, but almost being raced like a one-dayer...

    GvA finally on the back of the chase group - must be knackered though

    David Millar is fantastic on commentary.
    ...a rare 100% loyal Pro Race poster. A poster boy for the community.

    and literally.

    I think Millar's slightly plummy accent is rubbing off on Ned...he's starting to sound like Chris Martin from Coldplay

    Boulting.

    Who needs to interrupt Millar less.

    Could do with more structure to their chat - is pretty rapid fire all over the place.

    But I'm picky for commentators. Who knew?

    boo, no offence to Declan and Matt but that sounds like an interesting mix. Dodgy streams are all ES

    Good value race.

    Good crowds too. Feels like a proper race.

    Big shame for Dunbar. The fans lose out a lot.

    Can't believe there are so many people spectating this stage given its 4pm.

    Sanchez hesitates to make Rossetto chase and may have blown it
