any cable coverage of giro?
 

Does anyone know if any networks are covering giro?

I've been watching it via directv through bein sports channel 620

How about dish? Haven't found anything.

i dont have cable. nor can i watch it on the internet live b/c of work....but i have been watching the last 30km or so of each stage at night on youtube. somebody has been loading the stage each day. just search for the stage and dont read the comments as you're watching so it will be new to you

I'm not sure what channels you get, but Eurosport have been giving good coverage every day. I think it's now the only free sports channel thanks to Sky Sports. -.-

I'm watching it right now on Dish. I had to buy a sports package that included BEIn sports. It was $9 a month I think.

I have FiOS. It carries Be In, but only if you have the top level package of channels. I looked at the Be In site and I could only find morning coverage. I work 9-4, so I cannot watch TV at 9:30 a.m.

BTW...I will get to watch the stage on 5/26 live as I am off to the Italian Cycling Center on 5/24. The finish on the 26th is 20 K from the hotel. We are supposed to ride to watch them climb some hill. Going to attempt Monte Grappa while there.

For some reason I have BEin on Dish, a channel I've never noticed before. The cycling coverage offered on this channel is amazingly comprehensive. They had complete coverage of all of the classics: MSR, P-R, LBL... even semi-obscure ones like 3 Days of De Panne, E3 and Amstel Gold. They also had every stage of all of the early stage races: Paris-Nice, T-A, Basque Country, Oman (most boring race ever?), Romandie etc. All of this was in HD. It was the first time I've seen a lot of these races. It was the first time I've seen any of them in HD on cable. They even broadcasted the Little 500 from IU in HD this year. The Little 500, it turns out, is a ton of fun to watch.

The Giro coverage seems fine. Video is excellent: clean full HD (is this a first for the Giro in the US). Commentary is typical B-string European guys sitting in a studio somewhere.

I have uverse from Att..ill have to check for this bein channel after work

What's the channel number?

392 I believe. I DVR everything, so I'm not quite sure.

Thanks

Channel 594 on Commicast. BeIn has the whole Giro it appears.

I can't stand Sean Kelly's voice; he sounds like he always has his mouth half-full of saliva.
