When can I get some cycling on TV ?
I keep obsessively checking daily the listing for the Versus channel, in hopes that some cycling is in schedule, but in months of doing that I haven't found anything.
When will we get some ?

Go to Verses web site for a schedule. Tour of some Arab country was on Sunday. Pretty boring show as the entire place is a flat sand swept land.

steephill.tv had working links to live coverage of TdF last year (eurosport feed, iirc). hopefully, they'll also have Ronde van Vlaanderen and Paris-Roubaix this year. universal sports also had streams of the Vuelta last year, i believe.

I realized that youtube has better coverage than TV. I rather watch the 10 minute highlight reel on youtube, instead of 30 minutes on Versus, which is 10 minutes of cycling and 20 minutes of ads.

I agree, despite the fact Direct TV no longer carries Versus. I don't think i could stand another seasons of that same cadillac commercial. over, and over, and over, and over, and over...........................................
