in the US?

Does anybody know who NBC and its derivatives will have in the booth calling the ToF this 2023?

I think Phil and Bob again with Christian and whoever in the booth. The basic Peacock stream should be the same as last years duo.

Thanks. I faintly remember reading or hearing some where that Chris Horner wouldn't be there this year. I was hoping he would be (and they would get rid of CVV, if anybody).

I'm just wondering whether to get Peacock for 1 month, or just go with my VPN linking to Australia and watching SBS coverage of it. SBS does a pretty good job of cycling coverage, and I'm starting to get where I understand their accent. Though Peacock isn't that much for a month -- around $5 -- to hold coverage in reserve.

I like Peacock since there’s other shows or movies that are on there but not other streaming devices. I still think they need to do like WWE and show past event replays as well.

I think Peacock does show past event replays (at least with the TDF). I never watch the TDF live as its too damn early and I am also working during the week. Another option for people not interested in the entire race. NBC Sports will post on youtube a free "extended highlights" of a race. For example, a quick glance on youtube shows you can watch the NBC Sports extended highlights of Stage 1 of the Tour Down Under that is 52 minutes). I think they do that for all the races that are on the Peacock. I will probably watch each stage of extended highlights of the dauphine this year instead of the full stream.

Thanks for this -- you know, if I remember right, the past years they had 2 complete teams covering the TDF, and the replays were by the 2nd team and not the "Old NBCSN Team" of Liggett, Paul, CVV, and others. I might be remembering wrong though.

I think you are right. They have the "Old NBC Team" and then the Aussies? I think you can watch either team live on Peacock, but only one team is available for the replay.

The NBC Sports highlight shows on youtube are definitely the "Old NBC" team if they have done a broadcast of the the race live (which they always do for the TDF). I have no idea what will happen with the Dauphine. The youtube version isn't bad as it is usually around an hour long and they make sure to show all the interesting stuff including the crashes.

Peacock has a special running 19.99 for a year. Great deal...I paid 49.99. Definitely worth it, you get enough races including the Tour and Vuelta for 20 bucks. Can't beat it
EDIT: I answer posts as I read them then find things in unread posts that are relevant. I had NO idea NBC had a Youtube hour long highlights version, Thanks. Or that there were 2 replays available in Peacock one with a different set of commentators, Thanks.
I also agree with Shadow Peacock had other content, figure skating, movies and original shows that are quite interesting. BTW Shadow your handle gives me an earworm of Bowie's Shadow Man which I Love whenever I see your name .

I tried my usual VPN and logged into GCN, and I don't see the Tour de Suisse anywhere on the schedule. Perhaps since I chose Netherlands as a location? How are you plannin gon watching TDS?

cycling.today pirate stream but not filled with viruses like tiz. It does get blocked, and you have to refresh.

With your VPN you can choose between a bunch of broadcasts—though not in English mind you. The Swiss broadcast will be one of the SRG SSR channels and they have a streaming platform app. Eurosport Francaise is the broader for France, and GCN often carries the same events so surprised if they don’t have it?

 

[Carols]

I'd forgotten how annoying Bob and CVV can be Very enjoyable stage despite them!

 

[Potomac]

I only heard "Durango" once during the stage one broadcast from Bobke today.

 

[Carols]

Today I couldn't watch live and watched the replay this evening. It was called by a Brit, the totally monotone one. He didn't say a single sentence that wasn't about the race happening on the road! It was a refreshing change.

The GCN "what races can I watch" listing says that TDS is available in the Netherlands, so I'll check again in a few days.

It might be listed as Tour of Switzerland!

I think the CVV Bobke "dream team" only works on the weekend for the Dauphine

Appears so. I didn't know who did the live show yesterday. It's on TV Sunday 7AM so we may be spared them until then when we'll get both the dream team and commercials

 

[Potomac]

I let my VPN expire, after 4 years. And I'm not paying for Flobikes. So Suisse is off the table for me. I don't do Tiz anymore either.

Plus they have tennis on Peacock which is a plus.

And nice!

Contrary to what you might think, the native language of most Dutch people isn't English

It's called "Ronde van Zwitserland" in Dutch.

It was accidentally listed as Tour of Switzerland 2 years ago here in Germany. Hence why I assumed it might have happened again.

Ik praat zelfs Nederlands trouwens.
Afkomstig uit het Roergebied. Vlak achter de grens bij Winterswijk opgegroeid.
