Tv coverage from 11am today

Out today, highlights again for me. Shame as it's likely to be a real fireworks stage, or ought to be - all too often fireworks turn out to be damp squibs.

I'm at a wedding all day, but I'll try and watch the five hours or so (maybe) late this evening.

Should be a cracking day, with both teams/captains knowing exactly what they HAVE to do.

Well, all teams, really, since you'd hope Tinkoff & Orica would want a say in things as well. Given the lumpy stage and large-ish time gaps to close, leaving it to the last minute might not be enough. Seems to be agreed the roads are quite well known - will that deter attacks or play into teams' hands?

Sorry wasn't clear: Sky and Froome & Moviestar and Quintana being the likely nos. 1 and 2.

I like to see the early skirmishing of a stage but I can't sit on my bum all day!

I'm going to buy some bread. Then pop back to the telly to check out what's happening, maybe a cuppa. Then do something in the garden before popping back indoors...
...and so it goes...

 

[Crackle]

Well I'm going to buy some eggs and bacon whilst we're on the subject.

 

[coffeejo]

See, now you've distracted me from My Work.

 

[coffeejo]

More distractions: a sudden silence. Either my computer or all the live streams have decided that it's not exciting enough. I'll listen to / watch the paracycling instead and wait for the highlights. Enjoy the heart-in-the-mouth cycling that will now be heading your way from Spain.

Kirby - "Sorry I missed Froome there, I was busy looking at my notes"...

[roadrash]

I'm on an interim TV bit in my daily chores but, in all honesty, buying a loaf of bread pretty much covers domesticity today.
