    World Championships - TV/Internet coverage?

    thx Thanks for the responses! I haven't had much luck with steephill or cyclingfans since most of the official feeds are geo restricted, but I will definitely try the others suggested. thx again.

    World Championships - TV/Internet coverage?

    Does anyone know if there will be any tv or internet coverage in Canada of the worlds? The UCI site doesn't list any Canadian broadcasters. I was actually considering forking out $9.99 (what a rip-off) for universal sports online coverage, but then I was told that it's only for the US and...

    Giro d'Italia LIVE broadcast!

    Like the others, I also had this exact problem - I think about 50% of the time I would accidentally see the stage winner - usually it was because they always put the thumbnail of the stage winner by the link! (pretty easy to notice a jersey in a picture, even if you're trying to avoid looking)...

    Spectators Running Alongside Riders on Climbs

    I agree that the runners can be pretty annoying, but at least in Europe they seem to be cheering on the riders for the most part.... However, does anyone remember the climbs in the tour of California this year? There were so many people running IN FRONT of the riders. That really got me...

    The Tour - Streaming on the internet?

    thanks for the replies Thanks everyone for the replies. I think I'm going to try out the eurosport option first, but may fall back to cyclingfans.com. I've never had much luck with justin.tv, but will give it a try too if all else fails :) Edit - thanks for the link to steephill.tv too...

    The Tour - Streaming on the internet?

    Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone knows of any internet sites that are planning on broadcasting the tour this year. I thought the coverage of the Giro on universalsports.com was great this year (excepting the commentary), and I'm also a cycling.tv subscriber - their coverage has been great...

    Stage 19, Avellino - Vesuvio, 164km

    mental toughness +1 I can't imagine what it must feel like to line up each day knowing you'll be attacked relentlessly (they don't call DiLuca the killer for nothing), and that you'll have to turn yourself inside-out just to not lose the Giro.....Also glad to be watching from my armchair!

    Stage 19, Avellino - Vesuvio, 164km

    Oh, and very good point by Mellow Velo - I haven't seen Menchov looking around for someone else to pull him when Di Luca attacks, he's just going for it and not expecting favours.

    Stage 19, Avellino - Vesuvio, 164km

    menchov I really don't understand the criticism of Menchov, he's been fantastic this Giro. I will admit his style doesn't make me cheer for him, but he is winning the Giro and will deserve his win 100% (I'm ignoring the doping argument here). Menchov has been isolated many times on climbs...

    Component's weight.

    true fans! Ha, I laughed along with everyone else - But, I got to thinking, and I love it that guys like that are free to support their teams! I think there is this attitude (at least here in Canada, but obviously elsewhere too) that you need to be some hardcore cyclist to be following the...
