Is anybody else here totally disappointed and mad that NBC moved most of the TV coverage of the Tour de France to their subscription service Peacock?

I know it'd be only $6 to subscribe for the month to watch the race, but it's the principle of the matter for me.
 
. . . so I read Sling has it and of course upgraded my service only to find out it's exclusive on Peacock. (ahem)

What streaming service are you watching it on and are there any English commentators?

I think Vin is sandbagging a little, but Pog is a machine like we’ve never seen before (or at least not since the Cannibal.)

Also, who else was off the chain stoked for Cav #35?

Jonas hammered at the end and scored today… but man, Tadej just continues to be a monster. I don’t think he’s even real sometimes.

What impresses me is Roglic— he’s a good decade older than the top trio and still he’s only 2 mins or so behind the three youngsters ahead of him. **very impressive**

That said, the dudes and all are fun to watch; But I’m getting pretty excited about the women’s Tour in August.

Something about watching Demi Vollering pedal that is mesmerizing.

Agreed about the women’s racing. I have been watching as much of the Women’s Giro as I can find online. It’s fantastic.

I always had high hopes for Roglic, I remember when Tadej beat him to the top of Mt Baldy in the 2019 Tour of California, and I was like “Who is this guy?” (Pog).

I think he has a problem staying clear of trouble in the Peloton though. He crashes a lot, typically not his fault, but he is always too close to the troubles to avoid them.
