Tirreno - Adriatico Stage 5, Ortona -> Chieti, 230 kms (10/03/2013)

[cineteq]

You guys are so depressing.
The Nibali/AC combo will take down Froomey boy today, no worries.

Yeah baby! Both to attack in Passo Lanciano with Evans.

 

[Carols]

any streams yet?

 

[Eshnar]

Do we have good reasons to be optimistic regarding live streams?

Have we ever had?

 

[burning]

Have we ever had?

Steephill says the earliest live option will be in 15 mins, hoping to stream gods to find a working link

Eurosport Germany ditching cycling again in favour of winter sports...

I really don't see how a random biathlon race can be preferred over such a stage of T-A. To make it worse they even show a friggin replay of the biathlon race they already showed earlier today starting at 17:00, instead of showing T-A

The coverage of cycling this year on TV has been an utter joke...I'm getting sick of livestreams

 

[Parrot23]

Sagan won this very stage last year.

And didn't he drop his teammate, Nibali, in the process? Ha, ha

 

[jens_attacks]

live stream? is rai on?

 

[Eshnar]

live stream? is rai on?

I fear we'll have to wait 'til 15:00 cet

 

[Miburo]

Sporza is not livestreaming it yet, aslong as they don't do it I don't think anything will be available

 

[cineteq]

Less than 20Km to start Lanciano, peloton @ 6.25. No broadcast yet.

 

[Miburo]

73 km. We'll miss lanciano, you'll see

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Rai3 (visible within Italy) is due to start coverage ot T-A at 15:05
RaiSport2 is showing minor league football!

 

[Miburo]

Oh yes sporza is livestreaming it. (livestream is not working though, weird)

Means other should be hopefully available too

 

[roosters76]

And didn't he drop his teammate, Nibali, in the process? Ha, ha

Yeah, classless. He can still hide behind his age of 23, 22 back then.

He's just too hungry and greedy, can't help himself. But isn't it what it makes the cycling so exciting?

 

[Parrot23]

Yeah, classless. He can still hide behind his age of 23, 22 back then.

He's just too hungry and greedy, can't help himself. But isn't it what it makes the cycling so exciting?

Yeah, absolutely. I don't blame him. It was just funny, that's all--like Froome with Wiggo last year in the Tour.

 

[jens_attacks]

so any chance to see live the beginning of lanciano, sporza or rai?

Sporza is doing it

but i don't think it will work for non-belgium people

Only 3 minutes left btw

 

[Ferminal]

so any chance to see live the beginning of lanciano, sporza or rai?

Nope, gonna be another 20mins so maybe just the top?

Oh nvm only km 150? Should be good...

 

[BillytheKid]

Yeah baby! Both to attack in Passo Lanciano with Evans.

A point of attack might be the base of the Passo. One way about it would be an all out charge at the base of the Lanciano by the Sky's rivals. There's enough firepower in Sky rivals to to do it. A combined lead-out could disrupt the Sky train before the climb, but I doubt if it could stick to the top. Although, forcing a one or two km chase could weaken Froome on the final climb in Chieta.

Still firing blanks on the streams

 

[roosters76]

Yeah, absolutely. I don't blame him. It was just funny, that's all--like Froome with Wiggo last year in the Tour.

Except Froome handled it as a gentleman. Asked for a permission and made sure everybody saw it...

 

[JRanton]

Cycling coverage this year has been a disgrace.

 

[Miburo]

And sky is leading on lanciano
