2013 Pro-cycling season thread

So there's a good chance that fucking gimp Froome-dawg going to win the tour this year then?

"Good chance" presuming Contador hasn't found a new doctor...

say what?

Who doesn't love Lance after his performance in Carry on Cruising?

He did do a good Tyler Hamilton, that's true.

Froome's still got to contend with this man for the 'most-petulant rider' jersey

I'm looking forward to Tommy's faces. It's basically the main thing I have to look forward to now.

No live coverage of the Dauphine? Rubbish, will have to find a decent stream

Just watched on SportLemon via Cycling fans, Australian coverage.
Cracking stage too.

... will have to find a decent stream

Any luck?

yes, but it's already over! Been out all morning riding thinking I could watch it this avvo, they must have started early

anyone know where to find a rerun?

Eurosport has highlights late this evening, 11ish. Not sure other than that

All the stages finish early, by about 2-2.30 BST. Think it is to avoid clashing with Roland Garros. Eurosport is not showing it live. Everything you need to know about this or any other race is always available at Steephill.tv

USPro Race.

Amateur coverage.

Eurosport is showing live Dauphine coverage from from Thursday.

Is that the one with Chris Froome Froome?

People are smoking crack if they think Froome is going to win the tour.

No, he's vaguely british so he must win. You know, just like in the Giro.

Eurosport is showing live Dauphine coverage from from Thursday.

British Eurosport 2 are showing it live now. Via Al Jazeera, via Steephill.
