not to be negative, but I am not a fan of these 2 announcers... from the east, pretty ignorant of the area.

Agreed. But The road they are on right now is very pretty (I've driven it a few times) and I would love to see pros racing it since I always wanted to bike it.

 

[liamito]

how hard is the 1st cat climb?

 

[Netserk]

Grande Diaz!

But the coverage is mediocre

 

[Netserk]

how hard is the 1st cat climb?

Long but not that steep. From what I can see it's between 5 and 7 % from here until the top.

 

[RedheadDane]

I'm getting the coverage from yesterday.
A general thing, or a Eurosport thing?

 

[Netserk]

Mexican champion Luis Lemus Davila attacks!

 

[gooner]

Oh no.

British Eurosport ‏@EurosportUKTV 1h
Cycling fans, no LIVE Tour of Utah tonight, the quality coming in is not good enough, so we will have highlights tomorrow. Apologies

 

[Netserk]

Oh no.

But it's crap

 

[RedheadDane]

Guess it's the same thing happening here...
Might as well go to bed then...

But it's crap

so is the racing up until now

 

[Netserk]

So far all actions have come from a Colombian and a Mexican...

 

[roundabout]

Another Mancebo fan

 

[RedheadDane]

Gotta ask: Am I the only one who finds it really cool that the Ethiopean champion is in the race?

And he's got a killer name!

 

[Netserk]

Michael Matthews won.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

GVA 2nd but does he keep yellow? zzzz

 

[Wigwan]

GVA 2nd but does he keep yellow? zzzz

Don't think so. Matthews was 2nd yesterday so they are equal (1 1st and 1 2nd), but Bling is the lattest winner so I think he has the jersey.

Not sure though
