Rain and big crowds, going to be hard!

I've read that Domoulin will do a bike change, which means Froome will probably attempt it also.
I think TD will win, however I've put money on Roglic.

Danish National team will NOT do bike change - Danish commentator will run naked across the street if the winner will be one that DIDN'T change bike.

Looks fun. Have a great day and keep the pics coming.

Anyone got a start list with start times for the mens tt?

Froome about 5pm i read .

@taogeogheganhart starts in 20mins

Lutsenko coming up to the climb, will see how the bike change area works.

That is CET I assume?

Fucked up

'Smoothly' it seems...

DQ'd?

So if you dont use the little bit of red carpet is it game over ? At the bike change.

Just read the rules and apparently so !!

Tao!

The goats have the best seat in the house!

Reportedly Boassen Hagen will be riding his S5 road bike with clip on aerobars.
Surely thats sub optimal both on the flat (though S5 is very aero) and also on the hill climb due to added weight compared to road bike only?

Swedish commentators said they got the bike down to 7.5kg so not much of a weight penalty

Anyone know of a cheeky stream?
EDIT: This one seems OK: https://www.firstone.tv/Live/Denmark/TV-2-Sport-21

Its on youtube as well as bbc isnt it?

Tao might have crashed.

Tom Pidcock could show those guys something about bike changes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cPROvEN-kA

Anybody know who's doing the commentary on YouTube?

It's dog shit.

Those hairpins are properly tight at the base of the climb.

This still blows my mind from a few years ago. Looks like he only loses a place or two...
