Hopefully, not twerking!She's been tweaking? Guess that's one way to describe physio.

Sorry to divert this thread back to cycling but does anybody have a live stream link to the women's and men's TTs today? I gather most of the coverage for the women's TT will be on BBC1 but the men's, which is later in the day, is likely to get bounced around between BBC2, BBC4, various shades of red button, etc.

No idea, but the BBC coverage has been awful. I didn't think it possible to "dumb down" "dumb sport" but by Christ they've managed to do it!Sorry to divert this thread back to cycling

http://rio.sportschau.de/rio2016/live/index.html is probably the easiest non-BBC source if you can get it, else watch www.cyclingfans.com nearer the time. If you've got HD, then it should go on one of the BBC Red Button streams and pretty much stay there except for any presenter-led segments.Sorry to divert this thread back to cycling

However, they have made finding their coverage a postgraduate research project.

There's also https://www.procyclinglive.com/livestream/ but, like cyclingfans, their links are not yet posted up.

You know, I'm half-expecting to see the BBC publish a Facebook-style research paper titled "Experimental evidence of anger-based responses arising from dicking cycling fans around" after the games are over...

BBC online or the red button, I guess. Looks like I won't be around to watch it live so here are my reactions in advance:
Wow!
Ouch!
Fantastic!
What are they talking about?
He's slowing down!
Go G!

Excellent! Can I ask you how you managed to find the link? I couldn't find a route via the cycling page or the schedule page.

Not just cycling, I tried to find the live stream links for rugby 7s and tennis yesterday and struggled with those as well. I've ended up googling them each time but even then it's pretty random whether you find them or not. BBC really need some user experience or usability experts looking at their site.
As it happens, the link to the page @wicker man posted is now fairly prominent on the Rio front page at http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/rio-2016, but if it's not obvious there finding coverage can be a nightmare.
The best way of doing it seems to be go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/rio-2016, find the tile that says "XX more events available today - choose from our full range of coverage", click on it to get to the schedule at http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/rio-2016/schedule, then click on the sport you want.
Having said that, I went directly to an identical looking schedule yesterday and couldn't get it to link to anything useful. It seems a bit random whether it links or not...
I've also just found this page which doesn't seem to be picked up by search engines but does seem to link to all the live coverage pages: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live-guide

Went to BBC sport and clicked on the Rio link. Underneath the 'Highlights Play' button there's a 'watch live video' icon and from there you can select individual sports that are being streamed. It's how I watched the 2 road races

I also just found that page but I couldn't remember how I got there.
