Who is this guy commentating? He reminds me of a tour guide.

Keenan doesn't have "the voice" but otherwise he's very decent

Is it just me or is that link not working today?

It's working great for me today. I don't mind this commentator, I don't get Eurosport and after the VS TDF coverage this is a very nice change.

it's working for me (USA)

Isn't there supposed to be a lot of wind today? Might annull any attacks, or dissuade some from going at it alone from far...

And it's precisely Sánchez and Hesjedal who attack and drop the others.

Just went under the 10 km banner and the wind was blowing quite strongly directly into their face.

That will kill the racing

doesn't work for me either today
sucks it such a good stream.

 

[issoisso]

Thank you Mosquera!!!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Mosquera goes, danielson and gesink go. Probably shouldn't have.

 

[powderpuff]

That will kill the racing

the attacks are starting now

 

[Moondance]

Gesink, what are you doing? Valverde still has some of his peeps around him. Don't waste your energy this soon.

 

[taiwan]

Mosquera has a man up the road.
Trying to get over the gap. will Valverde bother to mark him?

 

[issoisso]

Valverde suddenly drops back quite a bit

 

[issoisso]

the attacks are starting now

Notice how they immediately gave up the attack in the strong headwind

 

[Moondance]

Bye Bye Vino. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

 

[Bala Verde]

Vino and rubiera abandon

I was afraid that the wind would be a major obstacle to racing today...

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Bye Bye Vino. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

I thought that was haimar?

Vino and rubiera abandon

I stepped away from the feed. Did they say why... injury or Worlds?

 

[Moondance]

Both retired.

Vino was v. disappointing. Obviously he has the potential to do better next year, but he shouldn't have hyped up his chances when he obviously hasn't got it back yet.

hyped his chances? he said he had no chance and would try to win a stage if possible.

He came pretty darn close

 

[powderpuff]

is there only time bonuses for the first 3?

 

[taiwan]

Don't think Cunego's in that MO group. Oh, there he is.

 

[Bala Verde]

2:55 solo, head wind against a smallish peloton...

Can he survive? Wait, they...

 

[issoisso]

Lopez has gone. Valverde has Kiryienka who's burned out and Rodríguez. no one else. someone attack please.

 

[pedaling squares]

Great move by Hesjedal.
