TDF Coverage TV

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

Does anyone know what time and channel the TDF will be shown on from tomorrow. Also when any of the replays.
Cheers

OLN (Outdoor Life Network) has full coverage. Beyond that channel it is slim to none, as far as I can tell. I have a lot of channels (but not OLN :-( ) and my TiVo is set to record any sporting event in the category "Bicycle Racing", but no hits as yet. I will report back if that situation changes.

Anyone else know of any sports shows that might have even a few minutes of racing highlights?

I know that CBS here does a weekly one hour update/highlights each Saturday.

EDIT: I know that CBS/ABC (not sure now) used to have a weekly summary of it. It might not be true this year, although I cannot imagine why.

It looks like CBS is going to have 1 hour weekly summaries of the Tour starting next Sunday the 11th at 3:00 PM ET.

i know ESPN might shoe it on sports center other than that on ESPN you can look on the little line on the bottm for really not much info

You can download a few daily clips from the OLN website - it's not much, but better than nothing:

As some of posters have no 'location' mentioned next to their name, all I can do is taut them with the fact that in Australia we get a 30min highlight show everyday @ 6pm (SBS TV) as well as live feeds of some of the stages which fall on the weekend which includes some of the mountain stages & the final stage into Paris.

In Europe live coverage on Eurosport generally starts about 2pm CET/ 1PM GMT, except for the mountain stages when the the whole stage is shown.

Does it bother anyone that OLN favors Armstrong? I think they shouldn't favor any rider and just comment on the Tour as it plays out.
