Gen Posted September 11, 2020 Share From the way that Rob Hatch, Daniel Lloyd, and Johnathan Harris Bass were talking about it, the feeling I got left with is that cycling's response to this is very insufficient and way beyond other elite sports and that it needs to be addressed better than what is currently happening.Yes its very wham bam in cycling Edited September 11, 2020 by Gen Mntboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost Posted September 11, 2020 Share Sam Bennett dropping out the back of the Peloton now. Plenty of climbing till the end of the stage still... Peloton is 9mins behind the break. No Bonus seconds will then come into play for GC today.Are they past the sprint point though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mntboy Posted September 11, 2020 Share Schachmann's caught up with Powless. Here's to hoping these two will be battling it out for the stage victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen Posted September 11, 2020 Share Who are the two commentators on Supersport? I really appreciate that they cater for newcomers and first time viewers by explaining concepts/happenings in a simple manner.Anthony McCrossen and Simon Gerrans DogMTB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mntboy Posted September 11, 2020 Share Yes its very wham bam in cyclingPerhaps too much so but the issue of concussion is one that needs addressing and if you listen to the guys from SSISA even sports like rugby, who's HIA is reasonably good, can do with improvement and it is a condition we know that can end a sportsman's career so there is a genuine need to get the protocols as good as possible to prevent that from happening.

Mntboy Posted September 11, 2020 Share Not sure who I want to win the stage between Powless and Schachmann as it looks like that they have a big enough lead over their chasers. Both are talented riders!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted September 11, 2020 Share I suspect, uhh, hope, that the stoic Nairoman attacks up the final few kms. It's about 11% for the final 2 kms to the summit of Puy Mary. Not a lot of recovery time in the final 2 hours of racing. And at least 23 kms of continuous climbing to the white chalk. That'll warm me up, hey. In terms of winning today, watch out for Marc Soler (head choice) and Martinez (heart choice). In terms of GC, Roglic will be aiming to defend his lead.

Frosty Posted September 11, 2020 Share Who are the two commentators on Supersport? I really appreciate that they cater for newcomers and first time viewers by explaining concepts/happenings in a simple manner.If you want to hear some good inside information on the commentators, then listen to these podcasts. Phil Liggett and Mat Keenan both give differing view on being a commentator/continuity host. https://lifeinthepeloton.com/2018/01/16/phil-liggett-the-voice-of-cycling/https://lifeinthepeloton.com/2020/02/26/matt-keenan-a-different-path-to-the-tour-de-france/ I'm not a fan of Phil Liggett, but my respect for his knowledge changed after I heard the podcast. The interesting take from both interviews would answer the need for explaining to newbie viewers.
