Oh this is just priceless.........

hey you have to admit it, Vino never compromised his ethics or principles just to win Olympic gold! lol

McQuaid expressed support for Vinokourov’s win, saying, “I’m not disappointed that he won.

“If they have served their sentence, then their participation is warranted.”

Wow. Would not have expected that from him...props.

Beautiful, Balanced & Brilliant.

...and he also bribed the 20 riders that he and Uran escaped from.

Synchronicity.

I think I'll just remember it as a brilliantly timed move from the original break.

After that it was predetermined.

Vino win, exceptional move by Uran that created the finale.

Vino simply responded and capitalized.

The 'conversation' was most likely just "Allez, Allez, Allez."

Which worked; They won.

Vino win, exceptional move by Uran that created the finale.

How do you credit Uran with making the move when Vino and Uran attacked at exactly the same time on opposite sides of the road?

Watch it again.

1:01:02 on the up-thread Eurosport Link.

Vino pulls in behind.

Can anyone tell me who will be broadcasting (and what time) the men's road race in the U.S.? I looked at the menu for "Rio Olympics" and while they have a schedule of events at different times, cycling is not included in the listing.

 

[Nick C.]

I think it is on NBC in the 6 and 930 am slots. I have it DVR'd. (I'm in New Jersey on Comcast if that makes a difference)

Yep, NBC. http://www.nbcolympics.com/tv-listings?day=1

Tomorrow is the most important day for cycling of the year. Most of the programs of big names changed a little to be at his top tomorrow.

It is a really nice and hard route, with wind, cobbles, and hard climbs, with the beach of rio at the end. amazing.

it is a pity Contador and Quintana are not there, but all the rest will be there. We watched in San Sebastian quite an essay, but people from Poland as Uran will be stronger now.

NBC as mentioned.

However if you don't have a cable TV subscription (like me) you can sign up for Sling TV's seven day free trial which will get you NBC on their app. The road race live coverage is scheduled to be on NBC starting at 7:00AM CT tomorrow.

Not sure about coverage but the race starts 13.30 GMT...BBC and the wee red button will probably be your friend
