    I might try and get some Flanders Reds for this afternoon. I have a fridge full of imperial stouts but I don't want to be smashed by 2pm...

    Just going to hop on the turbo for an hour anyway.

    Beer shop didn't have any Flanders reds (I was after a nice Duchesse de Bourgogne) so I went for a Buxton equivalent: https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/buxton-red-wolf/503831/

    Are you watching on Player? There is also the raw feed from the race with no commentary or ad breaks...

    I have the raw feed on the TV and the commentary feed from E1 on my laptop... So I don't miss anything in the ad breaks!

    nope tv. virgin media player (your tv package via browser)

    Wondered where you were, managed to get one of the biggest favourites in the My Man sweepstake and then didn't bother to show up! :wink:
    I'm sorry. Maybe it's better if I stay away if I can't make it live. Apologies

    The crash victims have about 10 kms or so to make it back, before the Paterberg charge.

    Weening on the attack, yesterday, off the front today.

    Unfortunately, it can't be long before Kirby returns to ruin the finale.

    My man Niki priming up the attack to make the decisive split. Just wait and see. Has the race exactly where he wants it! Pure team player. #striveforfive #vengaboys

    maybe look into investing in getting that removable for the race if they keep this parcours.
