    Absolutely!!

    It would have been more exiting watching the text updates on
    Cycling news.com.

    Could be worth investing in an analogue box and a
    second dish.

    Which five of us here did - waiting with baited breath for
    the next screen refresh.

    What a superb ride. If anyone deserves success it's Hammond.

  5. Quite agree. And that bloody commentator should be pensioned
    off - he was dire!!!!!!

    Fortunately we kept our anologue system when we got Sky
    Digital, so we watched the race live. But where was the
    presentation ceremony? Perhaps not shown on analogue live
    because of time constraints( Though they've fitted it in on
    other years). However they could have cut Duffields waffle
    on the British Eurosport broadcast and shown Roger Hammond
    on the podium.

    Much as I like DD....he and Sean Kelly proved today how good
    Dave Harmon(?)
    is. jeez who really wants a lecture on cranks during the
    Paris- Roubaix

    Both ARD & DSF show cycling not available on Eurosport.
    German Tour de France coverage also has profiles and
    interviews. Even though we only understand limited german
    its worth watching.

    And of course we did see the Paris -Roubaix live.

    Snooker is well catered for on British Eurosport. In fact I
    envisage them showing badly edited delayed coverage of the
    Olympic road race due to the coverage of the 2nd round of
    some dodgy snooker tournament. Or something.

    My weekend was somewhat topsy turvy. I only had a quick look
    at the schedules, and saw only snooker.

    I am under instructions to bin the dish.

    Yep, possibly the worst piece of video editing ever!

    Only missed both Museeuw and van Petegem puncturing in the
    final few KMs.
