League Name: Mumsnet Marauders
League Code: 159285217

I have joined the league again for the Giro.

I did quite badly on velogames in the classics but looking forward to the Giro highlights on Quest / the discovery app.

Also will be cool to see the Giro go through the Vatican at the end

Ah, I thought I'd won today but it turned out actually I hadn't.

Well as the men's race is getting, to be honest, a bit dull, I thought never mind the tdF Femmes starts today, only to find I can't bloody well watch it anywhere! (not paying £££ for TNT).

My team could still nudge up onto the podium on the last day…..Bike

I am thinking of getting a VPN to watch other events including the women's. I speak French so will probably watch French or Swiss coverage but someone on Mumsnet said they were using a VPN to watch Australian coverage which could be worth a try? Definitely not paying £30 per month!

It's the principle of the thing as much as that I can't afford it. Really disappointed that the Femmes not available to watch - they will then complain it doesn't bring in as much advertising.....
I was wondering about a VPN.

Enjoyed today's final stage, wonder if they'll keep the lumpy Paris bits in next time.

Congratulations to the league winner Eddy Marxx. You picked a really strong team!

I was so sad to watch the last ITV4 highlights show. Such a loss - the whole team produced such informative and entertaining coverage. I don't think anyone else will match them, even if there is a way to watch on another channel.

I agree - even un-interested son started watching a few of the highlights programmes with us this year as they had so much more than just the cycling, features about the bits of France they were in, the history of the race etc. If the TNT coverage has carried on from Eurosport it was just never as good, and some of the commentators annoy me.

I’ve entered a team in the Vuelta velogames - but not sure where/when I’m going to watch it.

Free to air highlights on Quest at 7pm like with the Giro, if you can get Quest.
