Re: Re: Ah yes, my mistake - it's the routes that still aren't available. I.e. something usable rather than the profile with towns etc along the way. Guess they could be a few months away yet.

Any idea when we might get detailed stage routes & profiles?

Smoother riding than some of the roads as you cross into Murcia! :rolleyes:

Amazing result for us having bought property between the two lakes earlier this year. That's next August's trip sorted & looking forward to hearing the rest of the route. There is certainly plenty of good riding & running!) in the area.

1. Froome 2. Porte 3. Valverde For me, & I think the top two will be well clear of the rest.

Re: Well much as I'd love to believe this I doubt we'll get much of a break from the buffoon - July isn't far away now & we can watch each stage in its entirety on mute!

Can't find it on UK TV listings unless I'm not looking hard enough? Sure it's been on previously?

Re: Looking forward to getting home now...especially as I can fast forward so don't have to listen to the pretty-boy triple jumper!! He was bad enough pouting away at the athletics but at least he knew a bit about that.

Re: Re: What a joy that was to watch & LISTEN to! Assume Clown Kirby will be ruining the Giro for us?

Re: This! SPOTY is a joke. An enjoyable review of the year, but only what the BBC want to show you.

Watching/listening to ToB on Bike is making us look forward to Kirby & La Vuelta! Mind numbing & total tripe for the last hour.

6 for me, although almost swayed to a 7 by the last couple of days. Course needs a better balance for me, but close GC through the top 10 kept some interest.

Great news to come back to for us! Now to confirm personal racing plans (it's this or the final week) & get organised. Feels a slow burner on information but hoping they'll firm some details up during the autumn classics??

Re: Re: Ah but now Foster runs Nova/Great Run for a living...hence his obsession with Farah (needs him in the GNR for £££) & anybody else is an also-ran. Kirby drives me mad throughout the day but I do find he calls the very end of a messy stage better than others. A Millar/Kelly combo would...
