For those of us who didn't get to watch it, can someone sum up what the reception was for Froome? I saw a couple posts say it was mixed. Was Froome booed? Just not cheered very much? Were there any fans with signs for Wiggins? Details, please :D

Also, how was the audience reception for the other GC guys - Contador, Nibs, Valverde, etc?

Thanks

Ive text my friend who went up for the award show, he said most riders got a very good reception, including the GC guys. Sky got the biggest cheer of the night when they came on as you'd expect. Overall the crowd very respectful to everyone but gave that little bit more for Cav, Yates, G and Froome. He said Voigt got the best cheer for a foreign rider and quite right too!

Knowing I may regret it, i'd like to catch it after work. anywhere streaming highlights or (god help me) the entire event?
 
The whole Eurosport Presentation could have done without LeMond Interviews and had Ad breaks during the entertainment periods, so we could see all teams presented.

They could have put on LeMonds interviews in a seperate show afterwards if they wanted.

I believe steephill has some.
 
This presentation on Eurosport was a frickin joke. Half of the teams missed. I only turned the TV on to see the presentation of Garmin team. I was lucky that the teams with the biggest stars were presented either later or much earlier than them, so they were not interrupted with the interview. But I feel bad for the fans of teams/riders that were not shown.
