Brent Bookwalter to finally win his US stage race? Looks a petty good course for him.
According to BMC, he's not even the leader, Sanchez is.

Will be happy if any of Rob Britton, Lawson Craddock and Guerreiro perform well.

Will also be cheering for the usual suspects in Skujiņš, Phinney and McCabe. :)
I also hope Craddock goes well. Saw him at the shop getting his bike worked on a few days ago.

Aye, both from Austin and a local, right?
Lawson is from Houston but most good cyclists from Texas wind up making their way to Austin at some point.

The coverage has just started no wind at the moment so no cross winds in an area that quite often has steady wind.. could pick up but much of the cross winds mileage has been used up before coming into sheltered city.

Some cross winds now but just a bit... Hope it gets stronger for a more interesting race.

Nice the online feed from the organization continues live coverage even when commercials start on TV broadcast. but a few seconds behind TV.

The two announcers Phil and Paul are split with Phil doing TV and during parts Paul is doing the streaming coverage simultaneously so some is the same, some different for online coverage while some is TV feed a bit delayed, so extra to see with both on at the same time. Some online commercials but less so there is extra coverage with both on.

Wow, that was soooo easy. And against a top shelf sprint field. When Kittel is on, he's just too good.

and
Sagan
Viviani
Degenkolb

Doing a count in my head there are about 30 seconds delay for the online broadcast to my TV coverage but they return back from commercial bit early online so just a bit of extra coverage and it was actually useful extra coverage.

Online just went to commercial after 3 minutes of TV commercials so there were 3 extra minutes of coverage. Now they are running online commercials. Back to live TV coverage.

Did Phil Liget just say Strade Biance?? Has he ever watched other race than tour of california?
Yes, the pronunciation wasn't perfect, but he mentioned it.

The tracker says that Viviani is still in the peloton, how is that possible? That must be a mistake, right?
