Tour de France 2021

That's my point. I thought that was the added value of GTs, it's never just the stage win, it's what the stage win means. In this case both more and maybe a bit less

I LOLed.

(it doesn’t happen often, well done)

Not a big fan of Lefevere but he seems genuinely pleased for Cavendish in quite a proud and touching way.

It’s coming home! ( Spoiler alert)

Eros Poli-esque victory on the Ventoux stage, goes into Paris in Green and Polka Dots.

I've got a tenner on him winning the Best Young Rider jersey.

When Kirby’s voice broke, I started crying.

Too soon

you will miss this trolling when cav retires

I can’t help looking at this guy, I keep looking at his smile glazing over…

Also … I keep getting Villanelle vibes from the disappearing dorky sign person.

Who's gonna retire first, Valverde or Cavendish?

Managed to avoid any hints and watched the itv4 highlights. At the end of the England game I said all we need now is a Cav win. Boom!!
No tears at 7, plenty at 8. To see how important the race is to him is fantastic and a joy to watch.

Yeh, one of my top 4 moments in cycling. A great day.

Come on @ WillMelling, let’s have the other three!

The Grubers, naturally.

spot on B

Anyone know what time the itv highlights are uploaded?

My spoiler chronicle continued in the foolish clicking of "stage highlights" on the itvhub page tonight lol

ITV's gazebo struggling with the rain today. Gary deserves better.

you'll have to just imagine I changed the logo

That's good enough for me, looks ace btw.

We were pressing refresh at 2215 and they suddenly appeared. No idea why itv can’t get them uploaded around 2000 like they did in the giro. Is it a licence thing? It’s way too late.

They were up at 2015 on Sunday but have been after 2200 the last two days. My theory is that the compliance team have been distracted with football matches.

Best to try and record from Freeview, cable or satellite if you have the appropriate technology. Although Freeview is SD, not HD, which is sucky.
