How many people will be paying £6.99 a month or £40 a year for GCN+ will be interesting
or will they put it on eurosprt like today? although the problem with that is like tomorrow when the xc is on they dont show it live due to road biking and superbikes being shown. i can understand the superbikes taking proity but not road bike, although i dont watch xc the same would happen with downhill.
commentary was a bit worse without rob warner but wasn't bad, think it would end up ok once your used to him not doing it.
I’d watch the IXS as avidly as I watch the WC events…if it was live streamed by someone
With tracks like Schladming on the roster it wouldn't be much of a hardship!
There's a fun little XCO course preview from Rob Warner on the UCI youtube channel if you want to see what they are facing this afternoon.
On the GCN+ front, that £40 a year is pretty good value if you're into the road races as well - all the tours, classics, monuments, etc. I am surprised though that the GMBN lot don't at least get partially involved in the XC/DH commentary, even if just as a secondary commentator for the chat as SL2000 says. At the very least they could give some technical input even if they aren't hot on the names/past results/etc.
I take everything back that I have said about Rob Warner. After having watched several races this month with different commentators that I even admit I will miss him next year doing the XC racing.
I’m just glad I have NordVPN to watch todays race on RedBull.
