And do you guys reckon the classics are better to watch than the big 3 tours?

Oh and whatever you do it is best to disregard most things that Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwin (commentators) say, more often than not these days the get the tactics etc wrong.. like they did again with today's stage[emoji85]

 

A lot of us stream races because we would rather listen to other commentary [emoji23] [emoji23]

Things like these make me feel warm and fuzzy inside

 

"He came up to me in the race and gave me another chance. He just came up and asked if I was okay. I said no and that I wanted to stick to the plan. I wanted to do my job as he led me out the first day. He's the road captain and he said 'okay we go for you'. I wanted to give back for the other night but he was so willing to give a leadout."

Fortunately the EWP is designed in such a way that shortened stages are more likely for the historic conditions we have seen. Rain/wind/snow/heat.

 

With the UCI expanding in China, we may well see stage cancellations as a direct result of poor visibility and air pollution, going forward. Will be interesting to see how the EWP is applied.
