Olympic Road Race (men’s) 2024 (August 3rd)

[Netserk]

Belgium leading the peloton, Denmark behind Benoot(?).

 

[noob]

Honestly I sorta like watching the chaos. It's fun to see how riders have zero clue about anything the DS doesn't tell them

 

[awavey]

Eurosport have decided watching a static camera of the harbour in Marseille for the next 15mins is going to be more exciting than this race

and the Beeb are watching hockey.

 

[Netserk]

So they have come to an agreement. Bjerg, Benoot and Hoole pull.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Denmark deciding to burn Bjerg for absolutely no reason. A rider who top-6ed in Flanders! Whats Mørkøv doing exactly in this race?

He was even fourth (but I guess that qualifies as top 6).

 

[Tim Cahill]

Ed Doghmy having the most chaotic race of his life at the front with his nervousness and mechanicals.

Halallaphilippe.

 

[Valv.Piti]

I thought he was 6th. I was even there

Waiting to be a lead out for Mads?

 

[Monte Serra]

Charles Kagimu looking stylish on the bike. An unknown rider for many, but not for Van Vleuten.

Has anyone found a live tracker that has interactive map?

So it was more important for Peter ' to go in opening ceremony with flag ' than try to win RR

He was talking about the past ..

As beautiful as France is, I've seen a lot of it watching cycling.
Part of the fun watching the road race three year ago was seeing the Japanese countryside and villages, etc.

Eurosport ("The Home of Cycling") has 9 channels on with live Olympics sport but none of them are currently showing the road race

 

[Danskebjerge]

UK doing zero.

So who jumps first, Remco or WvA? My money's on Remco.

Eurosport 1 does.

 

[Potomac]

OK gang, what is the over/under for how many KM left when the peloton catches the break?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Discovery+ switched to some sailing event, this is more our sport, absolutely flying out there, it seems all that practice on the waves when we were out err.. liberating.. didn't go to waste.

I think that makes sense.

 

[Rob5091]

Eurosport have it, i'm watching.

85 km to go.
