    Same as Eurosport UK lads, BBC is a British station so I wouldn't expect anything else really than for them to concentrate on the British team.

    spectators getting dangerously close to the riders, even moreso than the mountain stages of Le Tour, hope they don't cause a crash.

    It's not that bad - Froome hasn't even punched anyone yet.

    Though if he does, he might be in for a middleweight medal.

    Having watched from the start, since we changed over to the News Now channel there hasn't been an ad break. So happy enough we aren't watching on RTE 2

    Just came back myself also
    Not everyone has that channel :(
    Assuming no Irish in the swimming currently being shown (as it seems), could RTE not show cycling on the broadcast chnnel?

    If team GB were all on unicycles with punctures they'd still be in a "great position" according to the BBC commentators.
