Sounds like BMC needs to chase.

LOL. Where is Auscycle94 when you need him?

Does anyone have a video stream?? A link on steephill gets me a South African cycling show, which right now features some hot women cyclists.

Oh, yeah. Doh! Maybe BMC can call the DS of one of the teams and encourage his team to chase.

It's early. My brain is still in first gear.

This South African MTB race looks pretty cool.

No. Their best placing so far is Cadel Evans' third place finish in the third stage of TDU.

Impressive.

susan is there going to be any live coverage of T-A? (ticker i mean)

 

[Big GMaC]

I know it is simply not on topic, but, my Eurosport stream is currently showing Ski-Jumping, a sport, which being a Britisher I fail to understand in any way. I know you have to go the furthest, but what physiology do you need to be good? aside from enormous balls?

edit: Haha, cycling 🙂

No, we only do one race at a time.

i think you have to be bored or insane to do ski-jumping. they angle their skis to fly further but not being fat seems to be an advantage.

On the first 2nd cat, with 78kms to go. Feeds should be up in about 15-20 minutes. (as long as the French don't repeat yesterday's tech problem)

Same could be said about tracking professional cycling races online/via text.

Which is just when the action should start. 🙂

EDIT: The gap is now 5:30.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Eurosport 2 has started now.
Time to put my second TV in the living room... 😀

 

[Mellow Velo]

Hey...looks like a lot of guys struggle, everytime Caisse pull on the front.
Trouble ahead for many, I fear.

Foul weather in Italy!

Yeah the three up are motoring

Is it me or does this addition of Paris-Nice have a lot of street furniture? Maybe I've not seen enough of the past races and this is more common than I realized.
