Live to ride another day.
Why take unnecessary risks? No matter how small they are...

Simple really.... don't visit BNA if you haven't watched the video....in fact you could be watching the replay rather than looking at BNA and if you're looking at BNA at work then you shouldn't be... you should get the work done and go home to watch the recordingFatPom wrote:Thanks a lot!

Timing is good in Perth but still bleary eyed at work.

NO!! The accepted convention is to put "spoiler" in the thread title and not give the game away. There could be numerous reasons for not knowing/wanting to know the outcome. [such as falling asleep in the comfy chair last night. ]

Well considering there is a 'International Racing Forum' I thought I'd be safe here. I can watch the tape, work and read BNA, us English are good at multitaskingcavebear2 wrote:Simple really.... don't visit BNA if you haven't watched the video....in fact you could be watching the replay rather than looking at BNA and if you're looking at BNA at work then you shouldn't be... you should get the work done and go home to watch the recordingFatPom wrote:Thanks a lot!

Working from home and you still went to bed early? What's going on - hey, you're not an Aussie, are you?!?!? Bloody conscientious workers ... trying to ruin our country and subvert our culture ....

Actually my usual TdF procedure is this:
Watch the coverage at 10pm (or more accurately watch something else until I think all the pre race waffle and the cooking bit is over ), then stay up until about 11.30 and record the rest. Then get up at 5.50am to watch the rest. Then go to work.
Working from home means I can record the lot, go to bed early and start watching at 8am and hope the mobile doesn't ring So to me, the vision is 'live', unless of course I log into certain sites
I did stay up on Monday night, that was a great stage

Keep TDF out of the general forum and into International Tours and Events
End result may be more happy campers
If you want to read about TDF, go to a cycling site.
