As an idea, maybe we should do like in the Race design thread, and use the OP as a library post and then link to other library posts?

 

[jaylew]

Is everyone getting this and does anyone know what is going on?

I'm getting the same. I've been riding all morning and haven't seen the stage yet and I'm trying hard not to see the results.

 

[Netserk]

I will link to today's stage as soon as I can find a video of more than just the last 8km.

Good idea, I'll try to keep it updated with the links people post.

 

[skidmark]

anyone have yesterday's or today's giro stages? Thanks for all the other links, netserk.

Only shorter (last 20-30min) vids, which is more or less okay on a one-climb stage like today, but on a stage like yesterday, I'd prefer to see all three climbs myself, if I sought for no spoiler video of that stage.

20 minutes vid of the last 7.5km from yesterday

30 minutes vod of the last 10.5km from today

If you can wait longer, I'll link to longer recordings once I see any.

okay, I'll wait a bit longer, hopefully there'll be a longer video.

Here is a complete video of today's stage in Italian. Be careful, though. If you're not very careful you'll see the name of the stage winner. Cover the area just below the video frame and click full screen and you should be ok.

Awesomeness! (other than the spoiler of the stage winner)

Fucking 4 hours of coverage of Saturday's stage to Montecopiolo!! (Beware of stage winner spoiler though)

Okay I am trying to get around it, so I can get the video and then hopefully upload it somewhere like Vimeo so it can be seen without any spoiler, but so far the closest I've come is: http://www.rai.it/dl/video/smooth/raisport/raisport_5852.xml So I don't really know what I'm doing, and would appreciate help from someone with more software knowledge.

 

[skidmark]

That's great! I totally saw the stage winner spoiler, but that's really not a big deal to me, I'm more excited about stages like this for the overall outcome.

 

[Netserk]

I'd say you would have to know where to (not) look for, to be able not to see it.

Yeah, on my browser it came up just above the video screen. I'll be more careful in the future, or if you figure out how to get stuff like this to vimeo without spoiler headlines, that would be amazing.

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Does someone have a link to the last 30k of todays giro stage?

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

I see, sorry for mentioning!

 

[Netserk]

The Giro have had a lot of videos taken down, and I think even an account closed, so it won't be so easy to find (longer) videos

 

[Netserk]

Link to rai's full coverage of today's stage

Beware of stage winner spoiler! If you want to know where not to look:

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Fantastic, thanks.
Manged to not cover the last name of the rider, though, but still great to not know what happened behind.

I saw netserk's post above about longer videos, but is there any chance someone has a longer video of stage 14 and 15? I see Zam posted 15, but it's the last 3 kms so I thought maybe it would be good to watch something longer...? Is it worth watching the second last climb of 14, or will a video of the end be fine?

 

[Afrank]

On 14, you'll want to look for a video starting form at least 50K.

If you put a hand on your screen where the stage winner is written (see picture in post 67), and then make the video full screen, I'd recommend rai.

4½ hours of stage 14: http://www.rai.tv/dl/RaiTV/programm...t-910e3bff-4064-44f8-98a8-15dffc44a58d&page=0

A little more than 3 hours of stage 15: http://www.rai.tv/dl/RaiTV/programm...t-910e3bff-4064-44f8-98a8-15dffc44a58d&page=0

It would be much appreciated if I could find the summary of stage 16 this evening in this thread.

Thank you

 

[ILovecycling]

Can you (netserk or others) please post here a link to Rai full broadcast of todays stage??

I saw only a first third of the stage and I am impatient to see it.
