Well done indeed - but why didn't it feature on the BBC News? It seemed to lose out to rugby group matches and F1 qualifying. The BBC Bashing Cycling continues! :(

I too noticed the lack of coverage and tweeted BBCSport about it, there was coverage of the track racing on Sunday nights news broadcast but still no mention of Queen Elizabeth in Richmond.

They did have a 90 minute highlights programme of the Ladies race on BBC 2 on Sunday afternoon (also repeated on the red button later that night), so they didn't exactly neglect it completely. It is available on iPlayer (as well as the recording of the live coverage they had on the red button) if you missed either/both.

Well done from me too. Great ride. Contrast it to the coverage when Cavendish won it.
