    @ejstubbs, oh I understand that choices need to be made. Did not realise the BBC were restricted in that way - odd because on the first full day of the Olympics they had BBC1, BBC2 and Red Button but I cannot recall if they were all showing different things, maybe not.

    Perhaps I'll just need to be happy that I stumbled across a few events that I wouldn't have known about otherwise. I shan't be forking out for a Discovery+ subscription just to have access to (presumably) everything...

    Cycling on through the wee small hours. The last day seems to have changed things.

    Chris Hoy tip was a good one but Boardman, surprised, even Laura didn’t think we would do it.

    Saw the huge crash live just before retiring last night. Will catch up with all the action later...

    Well yes but

    Seems not on ITV4 this year and only on Quest for 2nd week.

    On Eurosport but presumably only if you pay?

    Quest highlights start this Sunday (stage 2) at 7pm according to the Radio Times. Presumably they're not bothering with the prologue.

    I thought the TVGuide also had times for the first week when I looked a few days ago, and (much previously) saw some scheduling for ITV4 - so ‘subject to change’…

    Was watching catch up "live" over breakfast yesterday with the 2 YO on my knee. Huge crash in the Womans Omnium race, people flying everywhere. Wee man says "ohhh nooooo" in the same tone as if he spills juice. Highly entertaining understatement. As ever can't believe everyone reasonably ok after such a massive crash. Horrifying.

    Lovely bit of child development there. Same tone as spilling his juice is as high a priority as the crash to him as he is only two.

    Also children are very highly engineered mechanisms to give their parents a laugh. Encourages our care giving behaviour.

    Velogames is open for the Spanish Race

    You just pick your team if you’ve done this before and you are automatically in both CCE and City Cycling Edinburgh as Retired Circus Bear predicted.
