  1. There is a massive difference between "I messed up" And " I ripped of multiple unsuspecting people on the internet" I suspect we are dealing with the latter here.....
  2. Lol, no. I just know that there are people out there who don't have the savvy for a vpn and also can't stand the glitchyness/ dodgyness of Tiz cycling and might not be aware that you don't have to get the full dstv package to watch the Tour. I am on the road all the time and I appreciate the fact that you can set the dstv stream quality to suit your data availablity and still be able to get a pretty stable feed - even with a less than desirable mobile signal.
  3. For those more technically challenged cycling fans who don't understand vpns and such can subscribe to 1month dstv compact plus streaming service for R519 which includes channel 206 and gets you all the tdf action via the mobile app.
  4. Remember to tune in early. Coverage starts at 11:50 as today's stage is the longest of this year's Tour at 220km.
  5. Today's schedule for those who have dstv.
  6. My dstv schedule says coverage starts at 13:05 today.
  7. I'm glad I held off on entering too early this year. Hopefully the route will be back to normal next year.
  8. Does someone not perhaps have some dstv login details that they can share with Cois so that he can log into the dstv app and then stream the TDF? I would offer mine but I already use it on the max number of devices allowed per subscription.
  9. As far as I know you will need a vpn to watch the tour on gcn.
  10. Sooo excited. I can't believe how quickly the TDF has come again! So many points of interest and races within the race to follow.
  11. Hey Dale, Actually, I am 95% of the time on my road bike these days - the roads around Howick are a lekker place to ride. I get what you are saying about the practicalities of dark kit etc and I don't have a problem with those who chose to wear it. My main gripe is the air of self perceived "pro-ism" that one sees which seems to coincide greatly with the lack of lighting and visibility devices. Anyway, it's not everyone and I do also see those riders out there who do make every effort to make themselves visible so kudos to those who do.
  12. Hey guys, it really is getting light later and later now. Don't forget to "Light Up"! Time again for my yearly mini rant. What is it with "professional" looking cyclists? Almost without fail I see riders in dark kit without a single source of light. And it seems that the more "pro" a rider thinks he is, the less likely he is to have a red flashing light let alone a white front light. IT DOESN'T MAKE YOU LOOK MORE COOL TO RIDE WITH NO LIGHTS!!! In fact, it just makes you look stupid. And don't think it only affects you if you choose to ride without lights. Think about the impact it will have on the motorist who drives over you because you were trying your best to make yourself invisible. OK, I have said my bit. Please, please, please remember to light up. Be safe out there and set a good example for others.
  13. Yup , I'm pretty sure MVDP will strike from long range.
