    Thanks @acsimpson

    That should open the floodgates.

    Actually I have a feeling that it will be your year this year

    13 might be a record.

    The picker in second place doing well if he used his usual technique of picking riders at random.

    @Srd, I would say, given the name that Yes this is the thread for this year.

    Cheer when the cyclist in the breakaway is not caught by the peloton. He seems very surprised himself.

    Hilltop finish today. Should see Ganna falling back and we will see if Remco is the boy.?

    Sadly no. They need a famous brit in the event before they show it, though they have paid for the rights I think.?

    Terrible things are happening to donkeys but only on eurosport

    @Srd, very good point. n9t on ITV4 highlights so maybe don’t need the spoiler thread this year?

    I gave away one of the Flanders races with 7.5km to go, to m6 mate watching much later on catchup

    So maybe a 7pm rule? Around spoilers but no one banned from the forum for not complying to this rule.

    Highlights are on Quest at 7pm every night. Live coverage on S4C (in Welsh obviously). Both available on Freeview/FreeSat I believe.

    Edit - S4C not on Freeview outside Wales, only FreeSat. Possibly available to stream on their website.

    @SRD should I make a thread then for SPOILERS? This one should be spoiler free

    why not!

    we're watching via Eurovision/GCN but the highlights are too late, so we fast forward through the main coverage while eating supper.

    On demand highlights also available here. You need to register but it's free.

    They played the wrong stage's highlights today on Quest and it's the same on the website for now.

    I'm not just achieving last place in our league but currently in the bottom 100 out of all entrants. Not that unusual but 8 or of 9 of my riders have scored points.
