NBC Gold, unfortunately with AP, commercials, on desk top-non..but Phil
And Bobke...good commentary...

Interesting to see if Dimension Data DS Rolf Aldag stays or quits. Apparently he's hot about Cav being left off the team and was loud about it before the start of today's stage.

If you use the NBC Sports app, choose "Cycling Pass" and you can watch the race ad-free, with Robbie McEwen and (I believe...) Matthew Keenan commentating.

Great tip! Saves me from having to listen to Chris Horner... 5 minutes of his back and forth with Christian was enough to reinforce my dislike for them both.

I Like Phil and Bobke. Horner is brutal. He just diagnosed G Thomas with "concussion effect". When schlanger corrected him and said, just to clarify, Thomas was not diagnosed with concussion, Horner says " hey, he got stiches in his head. they means you have a concussion of some sort."

Got a nice shout-out on Eurosport. Thanks, Carlton!

Done and thanks...the Phil and Bobke team is no big deal, even Horner and the guy on the motorcycle but don’t need to see (another!) Lexus, Daytona, Honeywell ad...

??who made that decision then? If not the DIRECTOR?

5 helicopters parked next to race route at 60km to go. Wonder why? Big $ people watching? Bugno driving any of them?

Doug Ryder, the team principal.

Is there anywhere to see speed and watts as they're riding?
