Posted elsewhere in Café but I thought it might be missed by the Pro Race contributors if not flagged here; looks like it's only available to watch today

I'll be sitting down later to watch it in peace once everyone has settled down for the night.

Cheers Marmion!

Explanation and acknowledgement given so not a TMN

 

[Fnaar]

Laters, y'all

is the vimeo page - browser behaviour means i think it is possible to download the film and watch later provided you don't leave that page, if you see what i mean…

the music is fab!

Was pretty good once past the 'Pearl & Dean' credits. Fuente is overdubbed by Marvin the Paranoid Android, and Patrick MacNee is the race director. Some great shots on the descents, crowds mental on the ascents - a few punches thrown and Polizia motorbike knock-downs. Some of the kits look great, like the Bianchi crew-neck that makes an appearance at dinner. Merckx climbing is not a pretty sight tho'

Watching now - I swear I just saw Eddy Merckx curtsy

I'm just about to watch it

I can't get it to play

Are you on dial-up?

Just seen Felice Gimondi on a Bianchi. Italians are so feckin cool - we can't compete really.
I've got the dregs of a bottle of Bowmore to go with this.

Nope. Broadband which is usually good at playing things, and I am currently watching a live stream of football.

Delighted that my link is helping others to enjoy themselves

I've been meaning to buy it for a while so I reckon I might just need to go and buy it now.

Yeah, it was good... Dog on pave, (check) riders raiding local shops, (check) caps with luft, (check), spectator coming a cropper on mountain stage (check). Cheers for the tip.

I wanna know what kind of gearing they were pushing up that last mountain. It looked like agony!
