    Decent stage

    PCS has him as 52kg and 176cm. That's 8cm taller than Lenny Martinez and same weight. Nothing to him.

    G looked attentive and reacted fast ..no sign of sluggish fatigue

    Not seen the result yet, and not able to watch any - decent stage to watch?

    Roughly how far out would yield a representative 'view' of the stage?

    I'd say skip through it to see the pretty scenery, then 5km should be plenty.

    Thanks both, split the middle, kind of, and went for 20k.


    First time I have heard Rowe on commentary, he's bl00dy br1lliant, so relaxed, plenty of humour, loads of in-depth and current knowledge of course, a real breath of fresh air - I really hope he considers commentary as a post pro cycling career choice.
