Frosty

Looks like the R59 coming out of Parys towards the N1

Today hasn't been good, so far... getting a repeated error speaking to the content security key not being renewed, on the Sporza site. Refreshing the page solves the issue, and then restarting the stream - more inconvenient than a genuine problem.

Shutterstock best describe how the weather looks like today.

It was Ben Healy in front of Remco. Paracaz was 14th.

Clearly I was focused on Luigi

I must have missed that; transmission (Sporza) stopped just after they showed Jonas’ group cross the line. Anyone know if Cav was caught up in the crash? He finished with Philipson, outside the top 100.

Looks like Caracaz is in yellow

nice to see Luigi (Maincheese) on Pogi’s wheel at the finish.

My favourite time of day is sun-rice.

This made me laugh…

Came across this when looking for the live feed. I know one Hubber who would like to see Lance still showing on the board. 😂😂

Thanks; I don’t use DStv but the explanation is useful.

So essentially I need to get rid of the Android devices (MiBox and Google Nest) and replace with Apple TV and speaker? Jokes aside; I bought the MiBox as a low cost entry into the streaming world, and it’s been working okay for me for >6 years. Guess I don’t know what I don’t know, and would be better off with a better tv box. I should mention that my tv is a 32” LG from 2008 😊

FWIW, on last weekend's early morning ride, with a friend, his light made mine (Marvel) look like a single candle struggling in the wind. I'm definitely sold on the Extreme Lights capability and battery life, and will look to get one sooner than later.

I'm not sure, but I do know that the DStv stream buffers a lot, which is not even through a VPN, and about 30cm from the router. Not sure if it's a hardware issue (MiBox), as a phone works fine. My in-laws have DStv, and their three daughters share the stream service to watch KykNet. Problem is that only one stream is allowed at a time, which is why I hardly ever bother to use their service. For sites I access with a VPN, SBS excluded, there is hardly ever any buffering (on a fibre line or a 4G/5G home internet line that is >=20-Mbps. GCN+ was on the MiBox, and had poor-quality (480p occassionally) otherwise my laptops (Windows and Mac) work flawlessly in 1080p resolution.

Gap/Distance to go: 53s at 11Km 45s at 9Km 39s at 7Km 35s at 5Km 21s at 3Km 14s at 2Km 11s at 1Km Bardet wins by 5 seconds

The Sporza feed has worked, and still works, fine.

No, and yes. My Flemish is getting better with every race. “U hoeft niks te missen van deze eerste etappe”.

Correct.

Financial year end stocktake this weekend, so that means having to work today and tomorrow. While the minions are counting, I’m doing some admin work and clocking in a few Zwift miles with a green guy called Jacques

Sporza FTW, with VPN

Save on the Discovery+ subscription, pay the VPN and then use SBS (Australia) which is free.

Was Strava dark mode ever mentioned in the Open Letter to Strava?

Dual record on another device, if having accurate ride data is important. Otherwise just enjoy the ride and accept that some devices are the runt of the litter; for every failure, there a lots people without problems, most of the time (self included).

Heal up soon, and well.
