    European Championship 2025: Men’s RR, October 5

    Course was too similar to the Worlds. Course was too hard, too selective. On this type of course, there is Tadej.......Remco.......the rest. Paul Seixas is living up to the hype. Ayuso is not living up to the hype in his own head. Vingegaard is a strange fish.

    Commentary on TNT and other WB brands

    Hmm, ads or no replays/no interviews/lot of redundant camera shots. What to go with? Here's my plan :- multi-screen till 30 kms to go then switch over to the ad-ridden coverage. Hopefully they will have had the last ad.
