Or the lack of it!! I know cycling isn't very popular in Canada, from the lack of it on TV. But I call upon any cyclists out there that has found a descent cycling channel to stream or has been able to stream Eurosport without having to pay some dodgy web site. I don't mind paying for it if it's legit.

The tour is the main event. I would like to watch it all really. All the cycling season including the one day events.

There is good coverage starting with Paris-Roubaix on April 12. Le Tour is on every day with live coverage as is The Giro and the Tour of Spain. Look for NBC Sports Network.

It is on TV here - either TSN or Sportsnet (cannot remember which as I don't care about cycling).

The studio presentation is understandably very heavily focused on US cyclists and teams, but live commentary is provided by the sainted Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen, with Bob Roll doing studio analysis. They make a good trio, despite the best efforts of inept anchorman Liam McHugh.

Buy yourself an Android box and watch as much as you can stomach .

Thanks for all the info, I will definitely check out the Android box Flat to the mat. Eurosport covers just about every cycle event going Rivingtonpike

Earlier this week the Paris-Nice race was on Sportsnet 1 on a 1 hour highlights show.
In all honesty, other than the TdeF the interest level is low... Next in popularity would probably be the Giro then the Vuelta which were on Sportsnet 1 last year.

beinsports have been advertising it too, although they were claiming the tour of qatar is one of the major races and errrr it really isnt.. I have seen cycling on sportsnet a few times in the last couple of months, cycling seems to be all over the channels, on telus you can search for programs, I would guess your cable providor(telus or otherwise) has the same feature.. for example i just keyed in cycling using the remote and found milan san remo is on sportsnet 1 tomorrow, although it seems they are just showing it live for 2 hours so it starts at 3am pacific time :S...
gent wevelgem is on beinsports, I don't think it's live and then the womans road world cup in the netherlands is also broadcast on sportsnet..
