No they only take 1 and 2 live

Congratulations Ineos!

He just wants to be closer to his riders!

(Who also move there to dodge tax, for all the talk of how great the roads are).

Enjoyed these shots.

Yes that was fantastic, reminded me of a Wim Wenders film.

These were good in Imola too. lol.

The kirby less Eurosport team is much better.

GVA down in LBL. Nobody flagging up road dividers.

why do they always get the tiny cola at the end

There are some interesting comments from sports nutritionists in this Cyclist article:

I think the fact it's easy to digest and can settle the stomach despite being acidic and carbonated has a lot to do with it.

and it's yum. I seem to remember seeing a thing a few years ago about feed bags and the riders would get a choice of coke, fanta or sprite I think in those little cans.

last year I bought a load when morisons had them.on a deal for pre-race

Alaphilippe has had 2 bike changes and now a shoe change

Vlasov out of the Giro, along with Lopez.

Stomach problems apparently. Leaves Fuglsang really light on team mates for the mountain stages.

EF fine at the Giro due to failure to register jersey with UCI in time

Huge hailstorms here. Wonder if they will hit LBL too

Very sensible tactics, you don’t want to race downhill on these roads after attacking over a hill.

My tip goes down the toilet before the end of the second day

EF are totally anonymous at the Giro other than wheelan's crash. Is this why they got the new kit, to get some sort of TV coverage?

It’s only stage two. Give them chance.

their job is done

LBL bonus last 15km live on ES2

Echoing the Eurosport trouble up page I’m trying to watch on a free prime trial with Eurosport through the prime app. It’s utterly sh*t!
No commentary yesterday on channel 15extra and no cycling at all today showing. So weird as I knew yesterday my brother in law was watching same feed with commentary on a different app

Good lord I bet Pinarello could do some dreadful things to a downhill bike

Sicily looks heavenly, LBL looks quite a bit like riding in the home counties

This is absolutely brilliant.

MVDP could take this if they start mucking about
