Oh man my heart is already pounding and they haven't even started yet

 

[Gen]

Oh hell.. will have to stream the ladies.. seems we have broadcast of the mens race from km 0 on SS

[Gen]

And we are live and they are off..

[Gen]

So exciting seeing Tony Martin riding his very first RVB

[Gen]

Apparently 25km into the race they will stop at a church for a 1min silence for the 2 riders that lost their lives.???? not too sure how that will work if a break gets away.

But if indeed it does happen it sure will be a very emotional moment.

[Gen]

Riders are trying very hard to establish a break, nothing is working yet

Busy building myself a nest on the couch. I will emerge from it after the race.

The peloton are not letting anyone go anywhere

In slightly uglier news, British newspaper the Sunday Times ran another doping investigation story today, in which a doctor is alleged to have doped 150 professional sportspeople, including British Tour de France riders.

 

Any implications for the Skyborgs? ????

Or British cycling?
