PSA: Volta Catalunya on Peacock
Stage one was yesterday. Only saw that Stage 2 was live this morning. Had to do a search for the stage one replay. Some of these app/interfaces lack a bit.
Bernal, Sepp, Tadej, Roglic, Nairo, Landa among those in attendance.
EDIT: Stage on worth the watch fir sure imo.

Stage 2 the commentators mentioned that Sagan is apparently having SVT issues and is under going a second atrial ablation procedure. They said surgery, as outpatient as ablations in a cath lab are, I guess still surgery technically.

Yeah, hopefully Petey will be OK and able to race in the Olympics, although it sounds like the Slovakian team may not qualify to participate.
As for the Volta, SBS has live coverage, extended highlights (~20 minutes), and full replays of each stage. Cyclingfans.com has extended highlights (~15 minutes) of the stages.
UPDATE: Today's podium ceremony was pretty funny, but you'll have to watch it to see what I mean.

Pog's gearing for today's stage was 54/36, 11-34.
Ok, if he's riding that, what should my low gear be? :)

"UPDATE: Today's podium ceremony was pretty funny, but you'll have to watch it to see what I mean."
which stage, you update post when? Or if your refer to stage 3 same as your 3/30 post.
EDIT: I went and replayed all the podium spots which I skipped initially. Not catching the 'funny'...

Dan, Pog was geared to be able to ride a 19% grade in the saddle, with 20-something-year-old, world-class legs turning the pedals. Depending on what you're planning on doing, you'll have to extrapolate from there. ;-)
Sparky, it was Stage 3. Pog got called up to the podium 6 or 7 times in a row and by the forth or fifth time, it was pretty obvious he was done with it.
