Tour de Suisse

[Adam4868]

Yes, it seemed like he stagnated at EF but they and he have upped their game in the last year.

He's come from the Giro on fire.He didn't really look like he was struggling on that climb either.90 odd k on his own.That was some stage to take your stage win.He nearly broke a smile at the end as well !

One if those gritty, tough northern chaps.
Softies like me in the sunny south are in awe...

Local to me so there's more than a little biased admiration.That scenery today probally reminds him of the fylde coast !

You mean today's stage winner is a Brit? Well I'll be damned. I thought this Eucarti bloke the French commentators kept going on about must be another young Columbian I'd not heard of.

I had watched all the stages but for some reason had forgot to record the last stage(nine)highlights.I went onto catch up and downloaded the stage on eurosports only to find when i started watching it was showing motor bike racing instead.
This is not the first time on eurosports that when i have recorded what was supposingly cycling that they were showing something completely different.

Yea I noticed that on Sunday.On my phone the player was showing motor racing and on my TV the race was on.
I only found out there was a difference at weekend !

I watched the stage from start to finish on Eurosport Player 'on demand' yesterday. There is a 4 hour recording there with the stage, interviews, presentations etc.

Think yourself lucky, I did the same and ended up with fencing, the type where you try and stab each other not somebody erecting a waney lap!

It's not perfect but it's a live sports channel which buggers up timings sometimes.
Name me the other channel that shows so much of our minority sport?

Tried to find the last stage on catch-up.No joy More motorcycles.

One positive I didn’t have to listen to Carlton Kirbys joke a minute show.

I just caught six minutes of the stage on youtube.
Great ride by hugh carthy,he has upped the pace(no pun intended)this season.
When he talks he sounds to me like freddie flintoff,must be the local accent peculiar to the preston area.
I also think that bernal has a great future.

I don't know what you are looking at - I can still see 4 hour video of the entire stage up there in the on-demand section!
