Im starting to like the Giro more than the Tour maybe because of the abundance of HD Giro15 stages ive been watching. Ive checked the 16 preview and it looks like a winner but im alittle worried about trying to watch it live or streaming here in the US. We don't have cable at the moment but are planning to soon, you guys are the experts, whats the best way to watch... Thanks All

Check in on the '2016 TV coverage USA' thread on PRR. It is usually kept up to date.

beIN is the USA station for the Giro with both commercial free live streaming and daily life TV coverage, but it is of course a subscription service. You must have the tv station to get the live streaming.

As Valv.piti recommended cyclingHub.tv has the best free streaming, but for the Giro I'm partial to the RAI site which allows you to watch the moto you want to see! So I keep multi views running from different motos, it is totally awesome!

Thanks Guys... Carols---did you say free streaming on cyclinghub.tv---sounds too good to be true...lol. Also whats the RAI site?---is that free also?

RAI is the Italian tv station that provides the Giro feeds and yes it is free. The moto and heli feeds have no commentary so you can have commentary going in English (in my case from beIN) and the pics in different tabs or sections of your screen. You could use an English Eurosport feed from cyclinghub.tv for the tv feed and commentary.

cyclinghub.tv just type in the url and you get the home page. They do the best HD streams I've ever found. If you want English you'll have to tolerate Kirby a lot :). Check it out, the last 50km of PV is up right now on the Video menu. And yes it is free!

Is the RAI stream Carols is talking about meant also for italian viewers though?
The only thing I can find when I watch it on my computer is a direct stream from RaiSport or Rai3. No options to choose cameras or heli shots.

It was definitely available in Italy. On the Raisport website.

It was definitely available free in the USA last year since I used it everyday from PA, USA without a tunnel or proxy.
