[hatcher]

We are so nearly there. It's about to get real good.

 

[jobiwan]

How is it 13.8 km to go?? It was 12.2 five minutes ago! Are they going the wrong way.

The on screen numbers have started putting the km figure in miles, and upweighting the miles figure based on that.

I can think of some words for how stupid a mistake that is.

and now all fixed.

At least you don't have to live here! I'd love to live on the metric system!!!

Everything is imperial here stones, pounds, miles, yards etc. but metric is just ingrained now.

 

[Havetts]

Hmmm, try it the other way round.

Almost right. 1.6 km = 1 mile

nearly .

Oops, brainfart .

William Dugan - TT1 looks very small. Reminded me of Rujano.

 

[goggalor]

8.5 actually!!

Yay! Only 8 now!

 

[jobiwan]

now 14 to go wtf?

Ignore the graphics!! Just 8 kilometers left!

Is upweighting a real word?

they keep on going back and forth between miles and kilometers to be euro-cool

and to **** with the heads of us that are up past or bedtime.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

1 kilometer = 1,6 miles.

It's the other way around...

edit: seems i'm late

 

[Havetts]

Waiting for some spectacle, something tells me nothing will happen. I'll continue to hope anyway!

 

[insideout leadout]

Almost right. 1.6 km = 1 mile

Add 9 meters to that.

 

[Havetts]

It's the other way around...

Kben iets te lang wakker .

Oh well, almost done!

 

[hatcher]

I'm half hoping there are no attacks, and no increase in pace at all. Just nice and steady to the finish.

 

[jobiwan]

6.7 kilometers left, almost to the intermediate sprint (3,2,1 time bonuses available!)

 

[Havetts]

I'm half hoping there are no attacks, and no increase in pace at all. Just nice and steady to the finish.

And why..? [

Is upweighting a real word?

It's a real word, with a standard suffix, so yes.

Welcome, written upside down.

Worst road paint ever?

 

[luckyboy]

Did Carlton Kirby just bring up Henao in a chat about the biggest riders?!

 

[goggalor]

Woo, Sagan! The younger and more talented version.

 

[jobiwan]

Motorbike almost got in the way of the sprint!!
Sagan wins sprint and trying to stay away!
