#CouchPeloton Men's Superprestige about to start on StayLive if you have two screens or don't want to watch the road race from Italy. #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton StayLive is again indicating that they will be showing Giro del Veneto tonight (in about an hour) after it going missing from their schedule. This probably means that Tiz will also show it although they aren't counting down to it (only the track world's in 4 days are listed). #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton The best #7NationsLadies squad would have been: 🇳🇱 76 WIEBES Lorena 🇮🇹 56 BALSAMO Elisa 🇧🇪 46 KOPECKY Lotte 🇳🇿 26 WOLLASTON Ally 🇬🇧 21 BÄCKSTEDT Zoe 🇩🇪 18 KOCH Franziska 🇳🇴 14 ANDERSEN Susanne Total 257 points #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton Congratulations to me! I won #7NationsLadies with 217 points, @BigGrove@mastodon.online is 2nd with 195 points, and @abagofspanners@aus.social is 3rd with 191 points. Tonight's highest score was 48 by @markrprior@ohai.social . #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton The last U23 man has left the start so the elite/U23 women will start in a few minutes. #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton Actual link <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uu3M6zvf190> to Le Chrono des Nations. Note it is a single stream for all of the events starting with the women's under 17 category so it starts in just over an hour and commentary will be en Français as if that really matters in an ITT. #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton Tonight Grace Brown rides her last professional race (of the year) in France at Le Chrono des Nations. Her start time is 11:23pm AEST (going second last, first woman starts at 10:54pm. Jay Vine is riding in the men's elite race with Stefan Küng and Mikkel Bjerg. Jay starts at 00:16am, first man starts at 11:30pm so it's a tight programme. Hopefully live coverage at [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYm7nna-v_zVfQ3d_qrs3kQ](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYm7nna-v_zVfQ3d_qrs3kQ) #CouchPeloton

@mativity@aus.social @Sophoife@aus.social that's the Eurosport coverage that Tiz is showing. Curiously StayLive has a different commentary team, with Matt Stephens and some other guy.

@MylesRyden@vivaldi.net You aren't too late but the rule for tonight's race is you can't have Tadej. Deadline is 80km to go so you have plenty of time to think about it.

@Sophoife@aus.social @mativity@aus.social I fired it up again at the beginning of the month.
#CouchPeloton there is a #TrollTips and #FRATL for tonight's Il Lombardia both with an 80km to go deadline. No @SBSSportau option so if you want to watch it you'll need to sign up to <https://app.staylive.io/cycling/roadcycling> or use Tiz. #CouchPeloton

@mativity@aus.social The monthly road cycling pass is $7.49 (I think they also do a per race pay for view). Cyclo Cross winter pass is $28.99. It's not clear if the monthly road pass would roll over into cross nor if there is a monthly cross option. On the road there was a yearly option but I didn't take it @Sophoife@aus.social might have done it that way.
#CouchPeloton For those considering a <https://app.staylive.io/cycling/roadcycling> subscription to watch Il Lombardia be aware that they are showing some cyclecross events, starting tonight. #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton #7NationsLadies STAGE 4: @markrprior@ohai.social is 1st with 127 points, @abagofspanners@aus.social and @BigGrove@mastodon.online are in joint 2nd with 111 points. Tonight's highest score was 16 by @markrprior@ohai.social , mandy_mcevoy and davefrompenrith . #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton #7NationsLadies STAGE 3: @abagofspanners@aus.social and @markrprior@ohai.social are in joint 1st with 111 points, and @BigGrove@mastodon.online is 3rd with 108 points. Tonight's highest score was 55 by @abagofspanners@aus.social and @markrprior@ohai.social . #CouchPeloton
#CouchPeloton The final monument, Saturday's Il Lombardia will have a #TrollTips with a twist. Much like the original you need to beat the troll, in this case Tadej. So you can pick anyone but him for the win (or 2nd place). Streaming via StayLive <https://app.staylive.io/cycling/roadcycling> or Tiz. #CouchPeloton

@mativity@aus.social maybe but everyone picking him is kinda boring so I was thinking of a return to the original beat the troll version of #TrollTips where Tadej was the troll (and so you couldn't pick him). If he wins then 2nd place is the winner.
#CouchPeloton If anyone wants to pick anyone but Tadej to win Lombardia then I can run #TrollTips (maybe that can be the rule for this monument 🙂 #CouchPeloton

@mativity@aus.social @BigGrove@mastodon.online @MylesRyden@vivaldi.net Between the ITT and the road race PCS decided that the e in Chloé has an accent so when I created the game it didn't have one but the results now do have one and so it didn't match. I've fixed it.

@antiaall3s@chaos.social They could have started Cattaneo as Affini is a continental champion and so he gets a start because of it.

@antiaall3s@chaos.social They had Mattia Cattaneo who was the second ITT rider for Italy at the European Championships (which Affini won). I don't know why PCS took so long to change the line up but I hadn't been able to find an announcement for the Italian team either so maybe they were just going on the Euros until something as announced. It can't be easy for them to keep up. I sent them the updates from Cycling Australia as they had O'Connor starting the ITT for a long time.

Total score (no bonuses) of 382
(1) or Groves on 2 and Strong on 14
(2) one of these is replaced by Rogla
(3) one of them should be Eddie Dunbar (20 if you picked Enric @ 8)
(4) one of them should be Pablo Castrillo

@mativity@aus.social There are no sprint or mountain points to be awarded so they are done and dusted. Hard to see Rogla failing to hold the leaders jersey unless he has a mechanical or is sick. Lipowitz is a minute behind Skjelmose for the white. They finished 12 and 13 in stage 1 so it's hard to see Lipowitz closing that gap. I think it's done barring sickness or mechanical.
