You could subscribe to Eurosport - about GBP 40 for a one year access - and use a VPN on your browser and watch the whole thing without interruption.

It was great last week for Flanders and I will be watching the same thing tomorrow morning.

This ^

I use Torguard for the VPN. It's difficult to get Eurosport to accept payment, though, doesn't like US cards.

Usually the SF Rapha store shows the major races live. Parking at that time wont be a problem and it's actually pretty great to be drinking coffee and watching the race with others who know exactly what is going on.

Looks like 1am sunday - EST. They'd broadcast it earlier but it was the only slot available after, offseason sports discussions, infomercials, auto auctions and footage of two guys playing catch but hey at least it's on.

To be fair, they have EPL and NHL playoff games to show. It’s frustrating but those sports have bigger audiences and much more invested in rights fees. Was hoping Comcast would bump it to the Olympic channel but no. Why not? Reruns of old Boston Marathons. Oy. Shows where cycling ranks.

search for tiz cycling live. As Jorn mentioned, you will have to refresh it once in a while but it is fairly reliable.

For tablets, phones and notebooks

Visit the cyclingfans.com site. They list live streams.

http://www.cyclingfans.com/paris-roubaix/live

Some are legal and some aren't and many are geo restricted. To get around the geo restrictions download VPN software. I used Windscribe on IOS though they have software for other OS/browsers. It is free up to a certain point and worked well for me.

Last week I watched Tour of Flanders from french TV using VPN setup to servers in France and it worked well.

This week NBC sports as I have a cycling pass to watch the Tour and UCI cyclocross. It is a good deal and works very well.

That's no longer an option, so enjoy it while you can. Earlier this year I tried to renew my Eurosport subscription and it would not go through - they now require that your payment source be registered in the same country, in other words if you're subscribing to ES UK then the CC has to be from a UK bank.

I set my DVR to record it. Now, I just need to avoid any spoilers all day Sunday and Monday until I get to watch it.

They take payment from PayPal.co.uk accounts
