PM: Giro d'Italia fans

Great to be able to watch an hour's worth of Eurosport's highlights via Quest (37 on Freeview) just now. Had heard Eurosport had access this tour but only found out about Quest's replays from today's tappa. Previous tours I've had to make do with la Gazzetta dello Sport's website's brief vids or the Giro YouTube channel - both non translated or subtitled. It always frustrated me that ITV4 had access to the other two Grand Tours but not this one. Great crosswind splits action from Quick-Step today. Will be sad to hit the montagne alte without one of my favourites, Michele Scarponi... :(

ps. Great send off for the Big Man today. Hugs melted me a bit. Bloody freezing on back row of Jarrold in short sleeves though. Glad pre-preseason is finally over and that Godfrey got a token sub app at the death - only his 2nd in the league after Birmingham at home at the end of Jan.
