Carlton makes bad jokes, Hatch is more serious. Both are better than the Lloyd/Blyth combo as at least they can occasionally recognise riders.Oh is it? I took a stab because I always get them mixed up

Every time someone slags off Kirby I just have to watch this again. It's a classic, especially when he looses track of Kiesse. Some joker added dramatic music for the lols.

Blyth is great, beneath the āmate chatting to you in a pubā style his observations are often spot on.
Magnus BƤckstedt was the best thing on comms today though. His detailed knowledge of the route, plus an obvious love and passion for the race is great to listen to.

Totally agreed on Magnus but Blythe is awful. He can hardly recognise any riders not wearing an Ineos kit. Today's Alps stage was a case in point, Dunbar, Porte, Sivakov, Swift, blah, blah, blah, Dunbar, Porte, Sivakov, Swift, blah. And of course it was Bahrain that mopped up the bonification.

Cool; I somehow didn't know CT had a YouTube channel. Subscribed.
I've just been watching Horner mostly as Grenadiers Cycling Network's got way too Brit and I never liked Lanterne Rouge.

Rampaging Remco finally does it @ Liege-Bastogne-Liege.
He went so hard on the pedals he nearly fell off in his defining attack.

That punch was bigger than Tyson Fury's. Chapeau.

QuickStep reports 2 broken ribs, broken shoulder blade and a collapsed lung
Edit: And his team-mate Ilan van Wilder picked up a broken jaw in the same crash so it seems no Giro for him and no Tour for Ala.

Not only a class act with his actions on the day, but with his words afterwards.

Giro favouritesCan someone try and make me feel enthusiastic about the Giro and the upcoming tour season? I always feel the season stops for a while after LBL until the Worlds and Il Lombardia
Looks like a pretty open field. Without Rog/Pog/Bernal it'll be anyone's race.
