    Nice, ITV4 managed 2 full minutes of broadcast between commercials!!

    Surprised you don’t watch the Rai coverage
    You can't outside Italy, can you?
    There are way to achieve this from the comfort of your armchair.
    Allegedly. 😉
    I have done it in the past from dodgy websites, as links from Steephill... eventually I was gifted with a virus... so I'm not going to bother anymore
    So I have a VPN and I can watch any state broadcaster on my iPad.

    The first year in nearly two decades that I won't be able to watch De avondetappe. :(

    Movistar can't help themselves. Soler drafted in to join Valverde and Mas at the Tour.


    It looks like a team selected to win the team competition
    that's always their goal. It does apparently generate a lot of publicity for them. Anything else is a bonus
    Fancy EF Education may be giving the team competition a bit of a go this year but I find it difficult to look beyond Jumbo-Visma.
    I know it's early days but, just saying.
    Team My Man 2022:

    Antwan Tolhoek, Sam Oomen, Tom Dumoulin, Thymen Arensman, Remco Evenepoel, Benoît Cosnefroy, Tom Pidcock, Mark Cavendish, Romain Bardet
  • A superb job seems to have been done by the organizers getting the circus safely round France.

    Didn't think it would happen but well done them

    Usually he spends as much time as he can sucking up to journalists, who are notorious disease carriers. Maybe he's the weak link.
