God, I do love the Giro.....Even COVID couldn’t fuck it up.....
I would be happy if all the pros races ended up on gcn. Tired of the multiple services and euro bootleg streams. I find the videos gcn puts out pretty entertaining, would be nice to have a service that actually focuses on cycling and not a hundred different sports at once. Gcn seems like they would do it justice.I just bought the GCN+ annual race passed since they opened up a bunch of stuff to the US. A lot of big races on there, many of them live (just none of the ASO races). The giro alone is probably worth the cost.
I just watched the UAE tour fists start, full on demand video. Extra treat was it was the Eurosport feed so got to here Carlton Kirby.
It is on sale $24.99 for the year through the end of February.
Im not sure they will ever get over the viewing licensing issue between the companies because that is one of the only places money can be made. Just nice to not have to grab a pirate feed.I would be happy if all the pros races ended up on gcn. Tired of the multiple services and euro bootleg streams.

Yeah, nuts. Just rode away. That finishing climb is defiantly the best finish in one day races.Such ridiculous power. He’s got to be the best at the moment
I feel like the “curb your enthusiasm” theme just plays anytime he gets on a bike.Day 1 of Paris Nice aaannnd Richie Porte abandons due to a seemingly innocuous crash. Maybe the universe really is returning to normal.
I wasn't surprised, no way Alaphilippe is going to compete with MVDP in a straight-up sprint. He said he tried but just couldn't drop him and then VDP just blew by him with a something like a 1300W sprint. The man is simply a beast.I did not expect mdvp to beat alaphillippe on that finish.
Bernal was a surprise, crazy hard to finish in the lead group on those one day races.
I texted the same thing to some one “Richie Porte is back to his old ways”Day 1 of Paris Nice aaannnd Richie Porte abandons due to a seemingly innocuous crash. Maybe the universe really is returning to normal.
NBC Sports Gold has Paris-Nice- or you could use a VPN to stream GCN+ here.It's a bummer we don't get Paris-Nice in the US, but some racing is better than nothing. It was fun just watching the Continental team race as well.
It's been a fun race to watch overall. Some great performances. I'm looking forward to the ITT finale tomorrow, although it'll be a PITA since I have meetings throughout most of the race. Still - a benefit of WFH is I can have both on at the same time (first world problems...).I happened to catch the last 20 minutes of tirreno adriatico on GCN. Did not disappoint. Huge bunch sprint at the end.
