The channel is NBC Sports

NBC Sports Network will begin its coverage of the 2013 cycling season with the 2013 Santos Tour Down Under. As the first race of the year on the UCI ProTour calendar, the six-stage race will cover more than 800 km around southern Australia, beginning with the People’s Choice Classic, a circuit around Adelaide.
NBC Sports Network will air daily 30-minute stage recaps of the race starting Sun., Jan. 20 through Sun., Jan. 27, and will air a special one-hour show on Feb. 10 at 12 p.m. ET, with a recap of the entire week of racing.

I checked out Universal's highlight video, but there was no commentary.

I don't think either channel has posted their schedule for the season.

LOL yep no commentary on the replay highlight show but some decent images, especially stage 3. The live streaming one has Spanish commentary... Also the recap TV show seems to have disappeared from the schedule. Considering the coverage they have to work with I'm not surprised.

And correct no schedule other than the current races are up on either station. Tough to be a fan in the us :(

I recorded NBC Sports coverage of the TDU, and I finally got around to watching the final episode. At the end of the show Ligget announces that NBC Sports will be covering Paris-Nice and invites us to see the "complete" schedule of this year's coverage at nbcsports.com. I couldn't find anything.

I wish the cycling twitterati could bring some pressure on NBC sports to post something on their website, and make it easy to find.

Yeah I understand I can't find a schedule either :( They usually do Qatar but it appears not this year as I went through the tv listings for all of next week.

Missing from last year:

You guys still on this? You won't get much traction now that Lance got pinched, there is no marketing angle to gather more sponsors, unless you have something up your sleeves? Its all SteepHill.tv from here on out or a new USA based rider hits it big with an equally big PR firm.

Buy a HDMI cable to connect your computer to the TV.

I have a HDMI cable....having it on broadcast allows me to DVR it and go on with life. Watch when I get home. Streams force me to be home and watching live :( But it seems I'll have little choice for some Big Races!

Wait 1 year for the action to return on the big screen. No Problem.

Unfortunately true, sucks for us US cycling fans because it means having getting up really early to see the full stage. :(

But on the bright side we'll be able to join in the live race discussion on the forum this way. :)

I know about torrents but they expect you to upload...what do I have to upload? :(

As your BitTorrent client downloads from other clients it allows other people to download the same content from you. You upload the same content you download.
