He had a failed atempt to become a professional rower, bulked up loads. Think he was 90+ kg at one point.
Was being trained by James Cracknell so surprised he is still alive

I went all out for the TT. Hoping with 2 more to come it will be a good strategy.

I checked earlier and it showed 0. I thought oh it hasnt calculated yet.
But no no, there I am at the bottom. With no points at all. Dunno how how the fuck I managed that.

I did chuckle at that, and clicked the team to see if it was right!

Is Lopez out?
That crash looked bizarre!
Didn’t it…
I came off in a similar way last year (hands transferring from tt bars to hoods).
Except my bike cost a fraction of the price, there was no fencing (just a ditch) and I didn’t have a bloke leaping out of a moving car to check on my health.
So really, it wasn’t similar at all.

Guessing Lopez hit a bump on the extensions, and hit the barriers head first?

Ah, thanks for that reminder. I knew the Giro was on a strange channel for the past few years, but couldn’t remember which.
The Eurosport “highlights” are a bit shit as its just spliced together extracts from the live feed, so doesn’t really have any structure or flow.
I know that’s what all highlights shows are, but the right edit joins it all together a lot more cleanly
Repurposed for EDF. … 
I will also look out for Quest, thanks.
Already posted further up 
Cant believe the UCI are so stuffy…

In what way was it non compliant? No explanation on the BBC article.
Didn’t match their registered design I imagine - yes, they registered one, turned up in ducks - presumably deliberately so the original didn’t leak, they expected the fine.
Why are the S4C graphics in English not Welsh?
In related news… What a muppet!
Actually scored some points today. Still bottom though.
Are there no substitutions at all? Ive lost one rider already

Ciccone & Demare let me down today.
Bugger, missed the start. Is the Giro on free channels?
S4C!
