Re: Re:

266 riders Epic!

when I went to school, 25 teams of 6 riders = 150 riders

27 teams. It's 162 riders.

25 teams. PLEASE READ THE LIST. No teams ride with backnumbers 161-166 and 171-176.

Touché. However, that is just stupid...

Does anybody know if the NCs and Oro and Paz can be livestreamed from Europe? And Im assuming the races will finish around the same time as San Juan, more or less?

Re:

no, it's just that 2 teams who were originally invited cannot attend.

Then the conclusion seems to be that I'm just ignorant on the subject

National Championships probably not, because RCN. Oro y Paz yes, Senal Deportes will have a geo-block free stream.

maybe the race organizers will alter the startlist to be more logical. The cyclingfever startlist was based on
http://www.colombiaoroypaz.com.co/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/LISTA-DE-INSCRITOS-COLOMBIA-ORO-PAZ-2018.pdf
which is no longer available. There may well be some alterations to the riders taking part, also.

Nationals:
- The route was changed during last week... Instead of returning thru the other side of the same boulevard, they will be closing the loop using different roads (shorter lap). It was set to 19 loops or 228 Kms
- Boyacá decided to not participate... That's adding to Movistar riders also declining (I'm not sure if this is something about regional rivalry, politics or just a bad coincidence)
After 13 laps, a break of 22 (all locals) has 3 minutes on the pack, led by Manzana and EF sometimes

2.1:
Orgullo Paisa will not race the COyP (such a ridiculous name!) given that one of the sponsors is a spirit (Aguardiente Antioqueño)

Spirit as in made up or as in a liqour?

Canal RCN is live.

[DNP-Old]

Canal RCN is such a joke of a channel.

 

[DNP-Old]

40 seconds. Checho is going to extend his title.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Why do they keep interrupting these adverts with a bike race?

 

[Escarabajo]

LOL. I forgot about the commercials in Colombia.

 

[Escarabajo]

I missed the whole attack. Gosh. This is really bad broadcast.

 

[Jungle Cycle]

unbelievable RCN... what a attack by Sergio Henao..

 

[Escarabajo]

Henao!!!!

 

[Alexandre B.]

This sport and its broadcasters have to do something about TV ads.

It must be one of the very few sports when the action continues during the commercial break.
