    And apparently it's only on for 5 minutes. I guess I'll have to wait a while longer for my cycling fix on the telly.

    I thought Lance was on another planet?

    Yeah the sky sports commentary is really annoying.

    I settle down with a nice cup of tea, switch it on. They show the stage overview, fine. Then we get the latest "lance-watch" update, ok fine. Then interview Lance, ok....oh look, Lance talking to the mayor of whatever town, ok great!

    Then you get maybe 20 minutes of cycling. I mean its hard enough to show most 2 hour sporting events condensed into 20 minutes of highlights, but 4 hours of cycling is even worse!

    I guess sky can't make enough money out of people gambling on it so its not worth showing, more darts!

    Slightly off Topic but some good performances from Roche in the TdU. Only a few seconds off a top ten place so far...

    Yes, he's doing well. I think he had a crash on the second day too.
