Been away all long weekend, don't really feel like switching on the laptop. Have found it impossible to find any sort of actual highlights online/YouTube/ supersport app.

 

Can't even find if today's highlights are on tonight. Would rather not spoil the results by going straight to the news, but too bad.

 

Didn't think it was possible to be so backward in 2017.

 

Edit: instead I've watched the amazing, finish to Milan San Remo, thanks YouTube

If there are incidences of organ failure? ! Overheating of the core, what can follow is organ failure

Thanks, was hoping I could find the 20/25 minute package they put out each night on supersport. Can't find today's on TV either. No schedule for RSA on the cape epic website either(Slovakia is there!).

 

I might be a bit tired, but I expect a bit better from this world class outfit.

Would be interesting to know if/how many times the "no needles" rule was broken in the heat. The best medical method is a post stage drip but "no needles" means no needles. Any participants see drips in the med bay??

In the highlight package they showed the medical tent...I saw plenty riders on drips.. not sure if they would've started today. Kinda thing if you need a drip you shouldn't be allowed to start as you are in a bad way.

 

*Off topic.. during the days of me playing masters hockey we would see a lot of players on drips but that was more alcohol related[emoji23], definitely not the case at the Epic.*

 

I watched the BMC after stage video..apparently Hincapie reckons stage 1 was the hardest day he has spent on the bike.. okay added he is not using the same 'nutrition' he used back then[emoji6]
