A few tactical nuclear strikes would be my recommendation.

Froome has extended to 2018 with sky, same old 'supported me from begining... blah'. Sky also announce Ford to provide vehicles instead of Jaguar.

Sports direct providing jerseys instead of rapha

Would be fitting - Sports Direct are British and the champions of marginal gains when it comes to shafting their employees.

Going slightly less aspirational...

Has the TDU stopped splashing the cash to get star riders over?

"Do you mean we have to wear this all season!"
"Yes"
"Ahh, crap"

Has Trek's kit been released? I can see myself getting confused.

mtn kit>dd

Answered the wrong person, anyway here's Trek Segafredo new kit!

is that the secret pro?

Well that's boring

Etixx kit and bikes are quite boring as well, especially I can't get over that blue. Love Lidl logo though.

And seems like Hed wheels signed few contracts with WT teams, at least Etixx and Tinkoff will use them on TTs.

Where can i find highlights or replays of both San Luis and Tour down Under? The latter is on sky - what happened to Eurosport 'home of cycling' FFS

Cyclinghub.tv - cool little place, great streams for everything and highlights as well

That lidl blue on the etixx kit is horrendous especially with the fully blue leg warmers. One mask away from a full smurf cycling team!

Anyone tuned into this channel before? http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/latest-news/cycling-tv-channel-bike-now-on-virgin-cable-service-207341

I'd heard about that and meant to have a look but forgot.

The reviews on the CW website don't bode well - i can imagine it's very low budget with loads of repeats but worth a look before writing it off

I looked at it and there was a show on about Aussies surfing. I was not impressed.

I turned on to watch about 10 minutes of a 'greatest climbs' programme. It was shite.

Old news, but I've just seen it - Katusha kit this year is nice. Best kit of the year I've seen thus far (new FDJ is nice, but nothing too special).

Great start of the season for Gaviria at the TdSL... that kid is a beast.
