Is Redbull tv not covering it? Just noticed that it doesn't seem to be on their live schedule for today.

I am wondering if they are covering anything at all. There has been so much action already this week and I have seen nothing, anywhere. Have I missed it or is it just not there?

Just had another look at Redbull tv and its showing that what they are covering is restricted and not available in the UK 🤷‍♂️

Are you saying that they are showing more stuff than just the weekend or is it the weekend stuff you are seeing? If it is just the weekend stuff you can see then there are 2 locations to view, one of them is OK for UK viewing the other is not

No worries, I do find RedBull a PIA to be honest, the TV APP is sh!t to navigate and I get issues with watching replays all the time (TBF I am not sure if that is the App or the Amazon cube)

Just downloaded the GCN+ app onto my Firestick. "Upcoming events" seems to have most things on there - the races at least.

@nedrapier, is it a free thing or more cash to spew?

Well thanks for asking. I didn't pay anything. I had to download the app to my phone as well, register on that and type the code on the telly into the app.

But I've just tried to open something, anything. "Missing package" on the telly, checked the app, "subscribe to watch" £6.99 per month, £39.99 p.a. No ta.

Pauline Ferand Prevot won.

The live video link on the UCI site didn't seem to work - perhaps a geo-restricted thing?

It's on Eurosport if that helps anyone. Then back on RedBull for DH Saturday and XC Sunday.

Pidcock not in xcc?

I've assumed Pidcock didn't race to save himself. He doesn't seem to have much trouble fighting his way to the front in the main event. No Nino either.

Well that was short and sweet but an exciting finish. Shame about the US guy going down but I think of his own doing.

Will they get a jersey for XCC or is it just rights for a good XCO starting spot?

Was a good event to spectate, they made the rock garden looks super hard, loads of crashes.

Rock garden looked bonkers close up and personal, I'd never manage it tbs. Bonus though, We've spotted ourselves i the OP's pic! Close to the les Gets Sign, Brick red jacket for me, pale hat for Mrs A. Fame at last.

If you only watch the odd race then maybe it's not worth it. If you follow road cycling and watch almost everything they broadcast it's good value.
