Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

TV Coverage.....

Sorry, but I'm not gonna bash on OLN or anything like most of you probably thought I would. My question is actually about cycling races being covered on TV other then the TdF in the US. Are there any channels that regulary have bike races/triathlons playing? So far I haven't found any, but I'm going to be honest when I say I haven't really looked that hard. Let me know if you know of any so I can contact my cabel company and watch more then one race a year. Thanks in advance.

OLN airs the classics? Damn, I'm new to the sport but I didn't think I was "that guy" that doesn't know anything that is going on with cycling on TV. At least I can admit it though right? Any other channels I should look out for?
