Damn DSTV PVR. The tennis ran late so I got 9 minutes of racing and it ended with 5.6km to go. Anyone know if there will be a repeat?

 

Also what time and on what channel are the highlights tonight?

The repeat was at 7am this morning.

Just check a few pages pack on this thread I posted the link to the DSTV schedule for what it is worth. It is not like they really stick to it in anyway. P!sses me off big time. I also waited last night.

Had the same issue last night. Was irritating my wife switching to 206 during commercials and then saw the tennis was on. Lucky I watched the last few kilometres as I didn t notice pvr stopped recording.

So, who'd you reckon to TTT quite well tomorrow?

 

I think Astana, BMC and Sky should be quite hot.

It was the best part of the day, they rode a circuit of roughly 15 odd kms, slightly undulating and the teams were jockeying for position at the front as the pace was steaming, mostly Sky, Liquigas, BMC and Astana were present.

 

The leadout was bad from Sky and they lost Cav in the bunch with about 2km to go, Greenedge got the lead and they were motoring, Cav was largely boxed in and the small bunch was weaving all over, Cav saw a gap took it and was accelerating up the pack when Ferrari switched lanes and took him out, Greenedge never faltered and took the win.

 

Why dont you PVR it on RAI, dont bother with SS they will just irritate you and you will miss half the race.
