where can I follow this live with ticker?

No live ticker. but try Peloton Watch on Twitter.

 

[Froome19]

Well there kind of is a live ticker:
http://www.voltaalgarve.com/etapa-4stage-4-live-ticker/

But it just updates the rankings infrequently.

 

[iZnoGouD]

Acoording to the ticker, the course is very hard with a few tough uphills and very technical descents

Interestingly Tony Martin said in an interview that the course was easy

[the asian]

Martin killing it

 

[iZnoGouD]

Menchov must be very close to the intermediate checkpoint

 

[iZnoGouD]

And then it's Kloden he could surprise

 

[jens_attacks]

too easy for tony....

 

[iZnoGouD]

19.8km checkpoint
2.ºMichal kwiatkowski, 27m01s.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Menchov must be very close to the intermediate checkpoint

don't think he can do it. Looks to be lots of power riders at the top.

[roundabout]

Those are big gaps.

Ok, it's a long TT, but still.

 

[Froome19]

Sergeant just smashed it. I can't bare to think of what Martin's time will be.

 

[jens_attacks]

tony to go under 45?

 

[iZnoGouD]

Those are big gaps.

Ok, it's a long TT, but still.

part of the reason is that it was raining and then it stopped and this course has some dangerous technical descents

 

[iZnoGouD]

Why don't they update Menchov and Kloden intermediate checkpoint

 

[the asian]

Sergent 46.24. Tony and Westra surely will be very close to 45.

 

[iZnoGouD]

Tiago Machado 19.8km 27m16s.
