Just saw that peacock has a kind of analysis podcast with Lance, George Hincapie and some other guy. How much did they have to pay George to get him into the same room as Lance?

Is there a good recap YouTube channel or anything to watch? Past couple years I’ve been able to tune into TdF live but this year I’ve been out of pocket. I keep seeing snippets on forums about how good it’s been.

I love them at first I thought he was just wearing some proper glacier goggles that cover the nose…

These have been in my cart for a minute

NBC or peacock or whatever is putting out extended highlights every day (~20 min)

Hands down the best thing about Cav taking the record is that once and for all we can say Cipo is NOT the greatest sprinter.

IF you don’t do the general reviews like nbc or eurosport, I like the Lanterne Rouge

i hate groenewegen’s glasses unless they’re for sun protection or something. i feel like my nose would be sweating!

Gcn or someone has a quick interview with the company that makes them. They were supposed to be for air flow to prevent fogging originally.

Can’t shoot a gap that isn’t there. Philipsen was also closing back in.

eurosport commentary is just so good. i love how they’re all buddies and joke with each other.

also…this is crazy: Exclusive: Tour riders are inhaling carbon monoxide to optimise altitude training - Escape Collective

i know they’re not provably using it for performance enhancement but honestly. this is pro cycling. of course they’re using it for performance enhancement.

It really is. And here I am, stuck listening to Phil and Bob. Blech.

Tv muted with captions and nice music playing is the way to go ATMO (when all you can get is Phil and bob)
