Its on eurosport 2 today

despite me asking the question about the skin suit, this doesn't seem plausible to me

Must be different countries then, fuck! Anyone got a link to online stream where it's Giro currently please?

Go to live stream. You'll need to refresh a few times, and use one of the back ups.

Just read that if Adam Hansen finishes today's stage which he's out on already, it will be the 17th consecutive Grand Tour he has completed.

Probably common knowledge but it's ridiculous. He equalled the record with 15 at last year's TdF, surpassed it at the Vuelta, and is still going!

Fucking hell, that Ludvigsson dude looks lanky.

You'd think he'd have got good enough to win one by now...

Yeah fairly common knowledge, and that's why when he had a crash earlier this Giro the commentators were extra desperate for him to climb back on.

I had this problem but when I restarted Apple TV the full channel options were back with several giro channels to boot.

Yates just setting off in pursuit of white.

Come on Tim!

Tho I don't fancy him getting with a minute of Junglist Bob.

Very surprised that Pozzovivo isn't even wearing overshoes. That's just giving time away.

He looks a right old mess on the bike tho. All bandy legged and wobbly. Overshoes are the least of his worries.

Come on Tim/tom

Here come the big boys!

Deffo looks like the pink skin suit is missing some features from the standard Movistar one.

Pinot smashing it, PooMoo looking sharp too.... Doesn't bode well for Nibs or Nairo

Yeah, but if he loses a place by 10/15 secs then it's pretty stupid. He has a TT helmet, skin suit and disk wheel.

Eurosport Player looks to have crashed?

Why do I persist with this fucking dogshit service?

pinot 25s down after 9 mins.

Is it over?

Tru. @xavierdisley socks are apparently worth a lot more than that at these speeds.

he might crush the second half tho....

Quintana just looks like he's fucked it already, taking a drink, braking on corners PooMoo pedalled round...

If the skinsuit is such an issue then surely the organisers should let teams bring their own in a variety of colours.

Looking good for TD

Yeh my eurosport player started glitching once the big dogs were on the road

i no rite? Drinking after 4km or something.
