I was wondering whether you know where I can catch a broadcast of all the track events on TV this summer for the Olympics. For that matter, if there's a way to watch the UCI events that's happening right now on cable TV, I would love to know where I can watch it.

thanks in advance!

I think you could watch it via the Cycling TV UCI site: http://www.cycling.tv (http://www.nmnathletics.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=20300&ATCLID=1441185)

Or, if you in Europe you can subscribe to EuroSport: http://www.eurosport.com

Otherwise, I am pretty sure the guys over at FGF (Fixed Gear Fever) will have some coverage and more info.

Have a look at the sports side of www.bbc.co.uk they're showing all the events live on the web.

I know NBC is doing a lot more cycling coverage on-line than they are broadcasting on TV. Be sure to dig around on their Web site.

Check out this (http://www.nbcolympics.com/tv_and_online_listings/zone=ET/day=1/sport=CY/index.html) page for starters. Use it to start a new search, though, and specify "sport" and "day," etc.

If you have Vista Home Premium or Ultimate , tv-tonic and NBC have a deal going where you can download/record the events; rather then just watch it live. I guess the info is on this (http://www.tvtonic.com/olympics/install/). Also note that is US only and that the events usually appear several hours after they have first aired. I used it to watch the opening ceremonies and the quality is pretty good.
