    This is ridiculous, RTE cut away from TT as all the top riders come out, every single link I can find for this is geo-restricted, I wish I had renewed my vpn subscription. Even the usual filmon.tv links don't work.

    Yeah, Kyrienka and Phinney are in my mind due to the length and relatively flat nature of the course.

    From BBC :)
    1. 10:09:09 ACT

      Cancellara catches Taylor Phinney, so the American is not on a good day, having set off 1:30 before the Swiss rider. Not a good day, either, for world champion Kiryienka, who is over a minute down at the second checkpoint.

    whats the difference between these bikes and the ones used in the velodrome? Is it just a matter of adding brakes or are they significantly different? Also what would they cost?

    Really hope Fabian can get this. Would be a great finish to his career. I remember the first time I Seen the tour it was the a prologue that he won, probably the moment that really got me into cycling

    Track bikes have no brakes and a single (fixed) gear

    With Di2, powermeter and rear disc wheel you're talking 10 grand or more
