Tour down under coverage

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

Tour down under coverage

Is there anywhere to catch full coverage of the TDU?? I liked watching the Giro on universal sports website because I could watch the stage when I was free.

Anyone know of a site that has streams of the stages?

The channel SBS is the cycling channel in Oz. Lots to find here.

There's no live video coverage until stage 5. There is live audio coverage.

The SBS highlights are nice- much longer than most.

Things I have noticed from the TdU after 3 days

SKY could be the real deal - money can buy you a team it seems;
Lance is leaner than this time last year;
HTC has depth in sprinters;
I really don't lie Evans but he's turned the charm up for the Australian fans.


I appreciate "one swallow does not a summer make" but this could be a very interesting season.

Should be a good year

Nice coverage on the SBS site. Good interview with Sherwen and Lance. LA is quite self-deprecating in it. Age does seem to mellow us all.

You know his persona seems that way, disagreeable or slightly irritating. However a lot of local riders who bump into him on our regular routes say he's just the opposite. Very approachable, friendly and accomodating, says hello, poses for photos etc.
