is to minimise changeovers as these slow the team down.

Not that they slow them down really, just that you lose a bike length or a tenth of a second per change.

Is Omloop on Eurosport?

Edit: will there be highlights there also?

Thanks

Yes and yes.

Watch it live, there will be an entire world of other peoples misery to enjoy at leisure. This should be a throwback to earlier days and a damned good reason to be thankful to not be good enough to turn pro, particularly if you were born Belgian. On the other hand, it might be so evil that the peleton huddles together until the finale.

First and last race of the classic season, worth tuning in! ;)

Womens race on GCN

Thanks for the heads up

Can someone check if you can watch the L'Equipe channel live online outside of France:

Today is the "Boucle Drome Ardeche" race, they've just started the third and final lap, about an hour to go til the finish. It's all my local cycling roads, it passes just outside my house.
Weather today is terrible though, windy and pissing down.

Ah, merde.

VPN!

I've got it on tv here, on the L'Equipe channel, and I'm popping out in a bit to watch the finish.
I was hoping it could be watched online in the UK so you could see all the awesome Ardeche countryside I have around here for cycling.

Emotional finishes to the women's Omnium and sprints

Emma Hinze related to the cough British sprinter? Or was that Hinde?

AvV off the front. Is this still live? What's the gap?

Finished a whileback

Cheers, yeah, happily it didn't jump to the end it started a while back. Caught up now, back to Worlds.

Really didn't need that many replays of someone getting their face run over on the track.

Five hours racing in that horrible weather, chapeau to each and every one of them.

Is Ganna riding wiggins’ old frame or just borrowed his branding?

He’s on a different bike now (same model)

Ha. Moscon tearing up his numbers like he’s in an am-dram production in a village hall. What an absolute bellend

Dq’d for throwing someone’s bike onto a pile of bodies in the ditch after a crash. Classy.
