Tiz has proven invaluable this year.
I have completely changed my viewing habits.
Unfortunately, this impacts my forum contribution.

Talking forum contribution, can we look forward to your TDF stage previews this year ??

It’s unlikely as I don’t have the old PC any more and I don’t think my iPad and phone can’t get fuller to grips with the intricacies of the different forum.

What I will try to do is add colour info to stage threads as we go along.
We’ll see.

In Spain young Bemjamin Noval completed the ITT & RR double with a 30.5 km solo attack.
( thats a double double he won both races last year )

Meanwhile in Spain Benjamin Noval did what he dose best and won the MJ ITT.

In the WJ ITT a young lady named Ane Zubeldia finished 2nd, bet her dad Haimar has taught her to just appear unseen on the finish line of road races like he used to do.

I hadn't seen that result

Tiz has live feeds for all the main races.
You can also click their links for YouTube if you want that extra bit of reliability.
Currently we have the Spanish men’s race with English commentary or the Belgian women’s race in Flemish.
The UK, German and Poland also available
