USA: Final Program on NBCSport

Now to see if I can find it in the tv listings!

God I hate NBCSports.

From Steephill
Highlights on British Eurosport 2 each day at 9 AM GMT starting Tuesday morning and NBCSports (USA) on March 3rd at Noon ET.
 
NBCSports finally puts up schedule. Romandie and Suisse cut. Nothing added.

We are screwed out of:
Strade Bianci
MSR
T-A
GIRO
Lombardia
Romandie
Suisse

I think it is the Lance effect, thanks Lance you filthy lying cheater!!

it looks like they moved the Tour of California to Universal as well

Maybe; but NBC Sports has it in their listings.

[I read earlier this week GE has sold the balance of its ownership in NBC to Comcast]

I think the Tour of California and the USA Pro Challenge were live streamed. I think last year I watched them on my phone without the commercials they were showing on the TV. Look for "Radio Shack Tour Tracker" should be one for each of those races.

So annoyed about the Giro. Last year I paid my niece for the extra cable coverage and logged in to watch it online.

The Giro has great coverage streamed live and easy to access in the U.S. -- it just happens to be in Italian! Why do you feel the need to watch it with English language commentary? I'm sure you're knowledgeable enough about cycling to follow what is going on in the race.

I don't mind watching in Italian, but I leave the house to take my daughter to school just about the same time the race is ending. It's about a 40 minute drive. I prefer to watch the stage after I come back....without knowing the results. Anyway to record it?

You could download it with bittorrent afterwards, might be a couple hours after the stage ends though.

Are there specific sites that I can get the download from? Would I need to be careful not to discover the results of the day?

I don't mind paying for coverage either.

It was so nice last year to be able to watch every stage in it's entirety (without commercials) after getting my daughter / husband out the door. I just carried my laptop into whatever room I was doing my "spring cleaning" in....I even ran the audio through the house stereo. It made for one clean house!!!

We may not be screwed out of some of these races after all. Looking through the TV listings I came upon a network called BEIN Sports, which has aired Strade Bianche and Roma Maxima, and will be airing Tirreno. Not sure what else they will have as I couldn't find a full schedule, I'm hoping they have the Giro.

http://www.beinsport.tv/tv-guide (The closest to a schedule I could find.)

Did a little more digging and found a twitter conversation where NBC says that this network owns the rights to RVV and MSR. https://twitter.com/NBCSNCycling/status/302965001113718784

Yes I found BEIN also; already watched Strade Bianche...of course I saw it Sat streaming. But was nice to watch the last 20K in HDTV :) The streams really break up and drop out alot.

Didn't see Roma on stream and it is on tomorrow :). So I have that to look forward to.

They only have the first 3 days of T-A :( and those on delayed broadcast so I will most likely have watched live streams already. But it is nice to be able to go back and watch key segments.

I set up a timer on BEIN for 'cycling' and it will find all shows they carry and record it.

This is grim..

GIRO is nowhere...Universal used to have such beautiful coverage..:(

I'm wondering if there is an app from gazzetta and will have on demand?...am I dreaming??? I thought I did that last year..

Is the BEINtv worthwhile watching?

I am not up to date on the alternatives. but Flanders and the giro are to me is everything.

Universals Giro with Gogo and schlanger was awesome.
