The problem with woman's bike racing has always been money. TV networks won't cover the races because they think they can't sell enough ads to pay for it. Sponsors don't want to pay for it because they think they won't get enough media coverage in return. The Giro Rosa (woman's Giro d'Italia) just happened and do you know who won? From the sketchy reports I read over the internet, it was a spectacular race, but there was no TV coverage in the USA.
