We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

We've got a ridiculously large monitor in the back corner of the office and I'm wondering if I can commandeer it. Have every stage on to boost morale?

Tomorrow EF are going to show off their new Giro kit. Hopefully it’s properly insane again.

I'll reckon they tone it down this year but fingers crossed it's still good. I'm tempted to buy their pink jersey as it's p.sweet.

I actually dislike their jersey this year compared to last so hopefully it's something good.

It looks like the Giro is being carried by GCN+ this year rather than Flo. I've been trying to figure out how much it costs. None of the pages on the site about the subscription list the price--you have to create an account first in order to see how much it costs. Do any of you subscribe to this already? It looks like I can just get one month for the Giro. The Tour and Vuelta are on NBC Sports.

What comments did he even make? All I saw was him saying they had met and that seeing Jakobsen do well on his comeback made him feel better about getting back into racing.

Groenewegen has said that both had a chance to vent and that they could look each other in the eye afterwards. It's hard to gauge if Groenewegen was being an rear end in a top hat or having an awkward time because of legal teams present (from Dutch media at least).

lol at Jakobsen saying he will not divulge anything from the meeting and then doing so the very next tweet

Yeah reading down that thread the mention of legal teams etc makes me think any meeting isn't going to result in a straightforward apology/admission of fault of any kind because lawyers will eat that up immediately.

You also need to include the cost of a VPN so that you can also watch the geo-restricted races, but Mullvad is $5/mo.
