@laurengunncnn Hi Lauren, sorry only just seen your message, I was out all evening. Perhaps too late now, but I'd suggest getting in touch with my friend @andpscott, he was up at the Stade de France for the final and generally has his finger on the pulse for all things football. Cheers.

@abagofspanners Thanks guys, sleep well. Catch you at the Arctic Race! 🇳🇴

@ahmericano Hardly touched anything in the end! But it's all about the preparation 😅

[Andrew Smith @andrewplsmith]

5 hours of commentary you say? Snack game is on point #radklassiker

@sophoife @SBSSportau @SBSVICELAND @SBSOnDemand I've just asked them if we can redo the broadcast to sneak it in, but no joy 😂
Cheers guys!

Eritrea-Frankfurt 🇪🇷

@sophoife @cyclesam93 @spannawalker No such thing as a 0.0% beer in Belgium it turns out 😆. Hope you guys enjoyed the race, cheers 🍻

@TourDeJose @cyclingtips @gcntweet Good for you José! Lovely news. I really enjoy your comms, and very useful for getting to grips with the capricious Dutch 'G' 😂. Roll on 2022 🥳

@talbotsmith @irishpeloton I've been looking for this stat for about 3 hours! 😂
A few articles I've found mention the 1950s but without giving the specifics, guessing you have it there Cillian

@robhatchtv @gcntweet @Eurosport_UK You tease. Probably easier to be at home for a seven-hour broadcast, come to think of it 😁

[Andrew Smith @andrewplsmith]

@robhatchtv @gcntweet @Eurosport_UK They finally let you out of Spain! Enjoy mate, should be a cracker

[Andrew Smith @andrewplsmith]

@BenjiNaesen Good for you mate, congrats! Just in time for Aranburu to win his first Monument and GT stage... 🤩

[Andrew Smith @andrewplsmith]

@sophoife @ChrisPana9 @ridetoworksyd @CyclingCentral Hi yes it's me! Hope you all enjoyed the race. Need one of those big beers the lads had on the podium now, but maybe not 0.0%... 😅

[Andrew Smith @andrewplsmith]

@BenjiNaesen Roglic is going to Mäder him 🙈

[Andrew Smith @andrewplsmith]

Getting nervous @BenjiNaesen? 😁
#LaVuelta21

@BenjiNaesen @gcntweet Currently leading #LaVuelta21! 🥳

Can't see #ArcticRace Stage 4 going to a sprint... Proper kick up to the line here, 1km at 5.5% but with sections at 10% 🥵

[Andrew Smith @andrewplsmith]

@SharynC25425201 Cheers Sharyn, very kind of you! Yes we'll enjoy a bit of Oz chat tomorrow, especially now I know at least one of the countries listening in 😋🦘

Never had this problem before: reindeer blocking the road 🤣🦌🎅 🇫🇮
