  • Yeah that was a great watch.  Only a month or so until cross season!
  • That was exciting. 

    Less than 4 weeks to the Vuelta a Espana...

    No.  That's it for free to air coverage of cycling in the UK now. 

    I'd hit up a VPN and check out cyclingfans.com for links to free to air in other countries. 

    Or there's tiz-cycling, but the live feeds can be flakey. 

    The subs for live coverage in most of Europe are about half of what they are here.  If you can sort some kind of payment option that works it's another option.  You will of course need the VPN for that too.
  • Vuelta highlights on Quest is my understanding. (Channel 12 on freeview where I live.)
  • Haven't been this disinterested in a TDF for a long long time. Can only put it down to a lack of British involvement or even hope. Didn't used to bother me so maybe I've been spoiled with our success over the years. I hope my interest returns again for next year.

    A young Brit came 4th in his first TDF, you’ve missed out

    Yeah he done great. I have watched five of the days but just didn't have the same interest or enjoyment I've always had before. Hopefully just a mood blip because the TDF is great.
  • That’s the way to always finish the Tour … and my favourite cyclist won the stage

    Onley’s team also just aren’t set up of GC battles, they’re fighting relegation. I just hope he doesn’t move to Ineos who are a shambles
    Don't know who would be a good team for him. Not sure of the contracts. You got the American teams like trek and EF education. Plus the two big Belgian teams, soudal quick step and alpecin. I have no idea but I bet Ineos will definitely be wanting him. 
    This is the dilemma, EF, Alepcin & Soudal aren’t good GC teams and Trek already have their GC guy. Ineos seems most likely but they need to get their act together 
    Late to this, I know, but I think that FDJ or even Decathlon/AG2R might actually be a good fit.  They both badly need a potential GC contender to build their Tour around (and I don't think any of their young French options have anything like the same talent).

    That said, it'll probably be Bahrain Victorious.

    I actually think Bahrain Victorious could be a great fit for him thinking about it 
  • Just watched the lovely sign off from ITV on their Tour de France coverage
  • Great last leg for itv 4. Will miss it. Exceptional coverage and how sport should be done. Knowledge and experience with a firm tongue in cheek. Will be sadly missed. 

    Hope they can a least do a highlights programme next year.

    Sadly they can't. Ned and David are going to do their own thing in some form but obviously won't be able to show the actual race

    Shame I've really enjoyed their coverage.

    If you have 10 minutes watch the end of their YouTube show, the very final montage is so so good. Link should start with 10 mins to go ish
