Isn't TDU a World Tour event?

Therefore I'm assuming that nothing less then Tour of California style Tracker with high def stream, start to finish coverage will be available for our entertainment.

Or am I wrong and I will have to watch same lame second hand low quality stream on some HaHa website using Hola plugin to fake my Geo presence just to see the last 20km?

And I thought the TDU was the greatest, best organized, most popular race ever ... silly me :eek:

I was surprised as well not to see Eurosport there (other than the Asian one), but it doesn't matter that much to me, since I'll be watching it on a pirate stream either way. (Or more likely: highlights on youtube or steephill)

I've got Sky News but it's not listed, so might have to resort to highlights on youtube, Thanks

That was what I was thinking in that its a world tour race and would be easy to watch, but then Sky have got it so guess it is, just a shame I don't have Sky

Porte looked strong at nationals but usually an outsider will podium for GC,dont know just guessing,maybe a Nathan Haas or Rohan Dennis or the guys you mention.

Someone will surprise,that's for sure.Looking forward to it.:)

So Willunga is too hard for Dennis who's soo much better climber than Haas ever will be?

I still don't reckon Dennis will do anything, he was training for the hour record than hills, but still Haas can only win by getting bonus seconds on the select stages and not loose ****load on Porte on stage 5.

Dennis caught my eye that day,his coming of age as a week long stage racer,sometimes riders just surprise me then other posters tell me it isn't surprising,like Phinney in a sprint last year,can't remember what race?,i get shocked he can mix it with 2nd tier sprinters then someone tells me he's always had a decent sprint.Every day is a learning day.

If Dennis is in top shape he can handle Willunga.Aussie posters usually know this race and who's in form,their input would be telling.
