scrapes procyclingstats livestats homepage and timeline

timeline updates are simply the titles, so sometimes you get something like "ranking after x km" or "present riders today from last years top 20" with no details. for now i am not getting the details from underneath, because for the most part they can be ignored. the action timeline headings like "wheel change for x rider" are good enough when they come through.

# todo

-[ ] timeline items with details
-[ ] pypi package ??

# setup (windows)

after cloning set up a virtualenv

```
py -3 -m venv .venv
.venv\Scripts\activate
```

if you get an error while activating the virtualenv, you may need to run this first

```
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Force
```

install dependencies

```
pip install beautifulsoup4
pip install requests
```

# usage

```
from pcslive import LiveStats

stats = LiveStats()
stats.print_races()
```
