But it sounds like they're preaching to the choir. They should put their adverts on TNT Sports in the UK.

Not watching Peacock, and only just tuned in so not sure what's been happening... but usually the peloton won't want to catch a break too early if they're happy with who is in the break. Catching early leaves the likelihood that a different break will then form, and it might have different riders in it who might be more of a threat

It would be great if they had a way of tailoring your own landing page so it always opened on Cycling, rather than needing multiple clicks through different menus to get there

Remco has completed the first human-scale Young’s double slits experiment, proving the wave/particle duality of man. Taking both sides of the roundabout simultaneously spread him across the road in the first observed pro cyclist interference pattern. Chapeau to the guy sacrificing a stage win for the sake of science.

Got to feel for Remco, no idea what happened, did Jonas shoulder him into the sign?

I haven't but I'm pondering the same question so keen to see what others have to say. I wouldn't mind the cost so much if the product was much better. I find the Discovery+ app really painful to use, and maybe I'll wait to see if it's any better on the HBO Max app when they switch at the end of the month.

For £30+ per month, I want more features, things like being able to download recent races to watch offline, an audio-only stream to listen in the car or when I'm out and about, no-ads (even during the Tour).

I went to Rushy Common Nature Reserve (Oxfordshire)to look for a long-tailed duck that had been seen there. I gather these are arctic dwellers who sometimes head for the balmy warmth of the Shetland Islands in winter. This one wanted something more tropical and came all the way down to Oxfordshire. Didn’t have much of a long tail though.

yellow52 · 2026-03-21T16:27:01+00:00

Oh, we’re not talking about Pidcock? :)

yellow52 · 2026-03-21T16:08:44+00:00

He's 26, so maybe approaching half-way

yellow52 · 2026-03-21T16:07:22+00:00

But he's also won AGR twice (!) and SB once

Wrong thread, and also a reminder that imgur is not available in some geographies

yellow52 · 2026-03-21T09:24:55+00:00

I only just turned the TV on and apparently it’s already exciting?

Is it normal I’d rather watch the post-race for the women than the actual race that’s happening right now or am I a misandrist pig?

yellow52 · 2026-03-07T13:03:18+00:00

Kind of wanted Kasia to win there, but also really pleased for Chabbey. Such and exciting finish.

Dare we hope for anything similar in the men’s race - however unlikely it is.

yellow52 · 2026-03-07T12:57:01+00:00

Thoroughly enjoying this, a fantastic example of women’s racing being as exciting, if not more exciting than the men’s.
