They do. I paid £19.99 for the year approximately six weeks ago.
All the cycling plus British Superbikes and World Superbikes. An absolute bargain.
We are aware of technical issues with tonight’s Giro d’Italia highlights and apologise for the inconvenience. We are working on a solution and will update you as soon as possible.
haha. Not a problem. If anyone goes into a Giro thread expecting not to find information on the day's events, then that's their problem.
Following earlier technical issues we will be airing the Stage 4 Giro d’Italia highlights at midnight tonight on Quest. Once again we offer our sincere apologies for the inconvenience to your viewing.
At 78 I sometimes question my brain and the tricks it plays. I really thought I'd lost the plot last night, I checked the information and realised it was Quest that had cocked up.
How can they ever protect against what looked like some rider ignoring the warnings? What sort of warning would you suggest for the traffic island that resulted in the crash of Landa and others, besides the giant pedestrian crossing signs hanging above the road, the centre line going solid and then widening into hatching, the huge orange padding strapped to the front of the island, the marshal blowing a whistle and waving a flag and reportedly warnings over race radio?
I have no clever suggestions to offer. Merely observing that serious injuries seem to be inevitable in these types of finish and wondering out loud how ethical this is.mjr wrote: ↑13 May 2021, 2:15pmHow can they ever protect against what looked like some rider ignoring the warnings?

The orange mat was already about 50% taller than the sign it was strapped to. Any taller and it could fall in wind or it would need support ropes which are themselves a risk and it still wouldn't come close to the large overhead signs which seemed not to prevent this.
I suspect the only good extra measure is to remove the islands which will increase the cost to host towns, price some out and reduce RCS income. Or we reconsider the idea stopping the GC clock at the town limits on sprint stages so only the sprint trains are trying to hang onto the bunch through the difficult road layouts.
https://as.com/ciclismo/2021/05/13/giro ... 78482.htmlAccording to the teams involved, the clash between Dombrowski and the operator who was signaling the fork four kilometers from Cattolica was caused by the worker with the flag: he hit the UAE runner, who lost his balance and took Landa ahead and Bidard. That person, Filippo Bartolucci, is in charge of carrying the flag to open the track or the blackboard with the differences on a motorcycle, with eight years of experience in the world of cycling, and the Giro organization asked him to stand on the island to indicate to the squad that rolled on both sides of the road.
