Is there any schedule of cycling events on television on the web? Velo News used have listings for all of the channels, but now only have their own podcasts listed. VS has a schedule for that channel alone, but what about the shows on the other channels? Supposed to be something on NBC Sports this weekend I thought...?

I am interested in the same information. I am about to buy TV service after about a year of being unplugged and need help in making my decision. Cycling coverage is one of my biggest concerns. I have my local (zip 32601; Cox Communications) cable provider, and the different satellite providers. I was wondering if anybody had any opinions on the matter. I would really like to get good coverage of the spring classics, the Road and Track world championships, and of course the grand tours. Is Versus pretty much what we are stuck with in the US?

thanks for the link. As per my original inquiry... does anybody know of any additional coverage provided by any of the American satellite providers? If not I fear I will be doomed to Versus' limited coverage for the next years races.

I may be wrong, but I believe that Versus will have the entire Tour live (usually 7:30 - 11:00) each day with rebroadcasts during the day and evening. The Tour Special VeloNews has the details.
