Royality in cycling is worse than doping.

Exactly and i wish people could stop posting their pics on twitter.

Noone cares about this Britain. Just saying.

Quit *****ing, they're ahead of schedule, you could turn on when the timetable says start if you didnt want any build up

not much to grab

Would be massive if the Tour and Olympic Champion Sir Bradley Wiggins appeared from nowhere together with the royal family to cut the line and have a little chat with the cyclists.

Hahaha, it would have been epic!

I'm not saying they shouldn't do this (although I doubt the riders will like this), just that noone cares about it.

No one cares about the 180km before the sprint starts to form but they'll do it anyway

That's part of, you know, the sport.

This has at least saved 45 minutes of time where Phil and Paul would otherwise be speaking.

What? It's not even supposed to be live yet! Stop whinning. You'd probably be wetting yourself with excitement if they'd stopped to talk to some ex Dutch Eurovision winner.

French equipment obviously not designed to function this far north.

 

[infeXio]

Awful TV production

 

[willbick]

its important to show that britain still has the greatest establishment and air force in the world

 

[DonMI6]

Ahh, the dulcet tones of Phil & Paul...

 

[kingjr]

Voigt in the break already

 

[Sciocco]

steephill streams immediately go to hell

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Voigt in the first attack. Nice way to start his final tour!

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

pre-agreed breakaway dullness.

 

[willbick]

tough break to control lol

 

[l.Harm]

Very tough to get in the break.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Quickstep and lotto ride, no skil shimano as usual

 

[Fight.The.Power]

Sat at the finish line. Amazing crowds. Sunny and dry!!! The ramp at the end will be no problem whatsoever! Happy viewing!
