eurosport stream, some motorbike race just ended.
Live coverage has not started yet.

thanks - the official live tracker is just horrible- let alone Phil & Paul to make it unbearable- i'll wait for Eurosport to start

What a beautiful descent!

 

[Mellow Velo]

Love the images! High quality and beautiful landscape!

Are you watching the same race?

Edit: Ah, an improvement. I can now read the kms to go....

These roads along the coast are stunning. The stages in this part of the ATOC easily meet and exceed the standards set by those of all of the grand tours.



Thanks CN

 

[Bavarianrider]

The quality of those pics is just epic!

Image quality was poor/average at first, but then it automatically scaled up to razor sharp

Seems like RSNT are doing a Liquigas and chasing just for the sake... of chasing.

 

[Bavarianrider]

Those roads, just stunning, what a surface!

 

[Mellow Velo]

Joy.
Eurosport HD arrives and it ain't Cartoon Kirby!

Clearly, you spend a lot of time inspecting tarmac.

Aaaah.... what is ajejadzes.


Edit: The team who Bouet rides for.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Aaaah.... what is ajejadzes or whatever.

Dunno, (I was still listening to the old bloke via the 10kbs tracker.)

 

[Wigwan]

What's the gap with the breakaway?

 

[Froome19]

There seems to be an argument whether there is 48 or 38km left.

Seeing that that cow seems to be running faster than the peloton i would bet on it being 48km.

I'm sure the local's are happy they have the race there because they improve the roads before the race. Now to get them to race on roads close to me just for some new black top.

have to say the quality of the feed is amazing! Hey I just saw some local faves!!
There's big Zirbel

35km to go and the break is 7:45 away!!!

Unless there has been a mistake in the information this is bound to be won by the break. Personally I think it will be one of: Atkins, Bouet, Louder or Boilley.

Edit: They seemed to have realised that actually its the 48km one so that makes it 42 km to go now

The break has been exactly 7:45 away for a while now ... maybe it is not accurate ?

These light speed transmissions are shiite.
I've got 41 kms to go.
Still, the break has it, I think.
Whats with the AToC in May?
Sun hardly ever shines.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Heck! Now ES say its 4 minutes!.
RR is a joke.

Now the break only has 4 minutes!!
With 39km to go it is going to be tight, probably a sprint though.

The Road Tracker has just stopped working. Luckily i wasnt using it, but I thing Bavarian rider should know about this

 

[Mellow Velo]

Coldesores bail out as soon as the road goes up.

 

[Froome19]

It is funny to see Coldeportes' riders being dropped in America on a bump.

Dont know the time but it should be reasonably close as Dahlheim just got caught. He was dropped a while ago but it still shows it is close.
