I doubt any of it will be on NBC, or anything but Versus. It's either that or pay the $30 for All Access.

They will run Versus TDF coverage daily. You can signup for universalsports coverage and see a live coverage of the TDF stages and replays.
They might have the last day or weekend on NBC..who knows.

According to my Tivo schedule, the first 2 days (July 2-3) will be on NBC broadcast TV. 2 hours of coverage each day, starting at 11am Pacific time. No idea if any other stages will be on NBC.

I think in past years, NBC has had a half hour TdF "wrap up" show sandwiched between Sunday infomercials.

NM - just saw the schedule and it looks good. Doesn't look like they're doing the mountain stage starts like they did in the past though. gonna suck for the west coast if you want to see it live. Lots of 0500 days for you guys.
