    For the benefit of non-Eurosport viewers, the BR favourite, Kirby, is having sound issues.

    My L'equipe feed keeps switching to triathlon so think yourselves lucky.

    I don't have Kirby on Eurosport. I've still got Hatch.

    Are there lots of semis around with Carthy in the break?

    When did Duffield fill his petrol car with diesel and do the whole thing on his phone?

    The Astana train looks like a load of Bertie Bassetts on the front.

    Breakaway has got this.

    The breakaway had this. :wink:

    90 seconds lost in less than 5 kms as Astana ramp it up.
    Vino has been busy on the keyboard.

    And yes. Big stage gets to the key time and Eurosport inflict Kirby on us again.

    About time they showed themselves. Thought they would have gone yesterday as well

    i remember Pantani just sticking it into the big ring and just clipping off up the road...insane in hindsight.

    Love how the Italians keep idols even after dodgy pasts, you can't change the past only shape the future, you shouldn't be ashamed of your history, all history is part of our fibre

    Kirby talking bullsh*t. There is no technical problems on Rai.

    L'equipe are saying the same thing to be fair.

    There's definitely some tech issues because I occasionally get snippets of Kirby/Kelly and then it goes silent and we return to Hatch.
