Yeah, I guess we won‘t see much of the race today.

And if it were being broadcast, I might do the same.

Oh no.

I might hold off until about 5:16 this afternoon before I make my vote on the poll.

Does anyone know what time in the UK the race coverage starts for the mens? It says 13.35 on Discovery but not sure if thats CET or GMT?

Edit: Checked the Tv Guide it's UK time

Cosnefroy said a win needs to be celebrated, so they had a nice dinner and a couple of beer on Wednesday. Sounds like he is perfectly prepared for today!

Wait, a Frenchman that drinks beer instead of wine?

Kronenbourg sounds like good training to make Amstel delicious though!

Why this is no live for Men s race?

Imagine giving any sort of attention to this mickey mouse "classic" when we could be discussing the stunning implications of David Gaudu's win at the Tour du Jura instead.

I no know

Why this is no live for Men s race?

The camera motos are busy filming the Ladies race probably.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

As was the case the last two weeks, the women's race is more interesting. Great race going on...the men's will get plenty of coverage, and almost certainly be less interesting.

 

[BigCoward]

Just read that the record speed was from 1967 edition, how is that possible with advances in tech, training and nutrition? Was it all down hill with a 50km tailwind the whole race?

Why this is no live for Men s race?

DNP gave an explanation in the Women's Thread.
Apparently the organisation providing the images haven't heard about the concept of providing images from both a men's and a women's race at the same time.

Don't you all worry, for those of you who don't fancy Kirby, there will be alternative commentary from a much beloved forum-favourite.
