Watching 2021 UCI Road World Championships in USA

What streaming service is covering the world championships this year? I realize there's various work-arounds but of the usual streaming services which one is covering? ( I don't know why this is so difficult; I subscribe to 3 services and I still can't figure it out.)

From what I can tell, it looks like FloBikes has the coverage in the U.S.

Yep. According to CyclingNews, FloSports has the television rights for US and Canada.

If you’ve got a VPN, SBS (Australia network) says they are streaming it live and will probably have it available as on-demand after the event.

I used them to watch the Tour and found it to be excellent commentary. It’s free but has some adds....still felt like less interruptions than watching it over the air.

Gcn+

Highly recommend GCN+. They have many races and a lot of other great videos that will keep you entertained for as a long as you want to watch. GCN is a great concept and far better than any other cycling streaming service.

To use in US you need to use a VPN for some races due to territory restrictions. I have Norton 360 so I loaded in on my iPad and set to UK and works perfectly. Any VPN should work.

Let me know if any q

Cross season is coming and GCN has amazing cross coverage.

I second this. GCN+ is well worth the money. Use a VPN when they have geo-restrictions.

Ditto on GCN+. Great on every level — especially the lack of commercials and the knowledgeable commentary. Also being able to watch replays on demand is a huge plus in my book.

In terms of circumventing the silly geo-restrictions, I use Express VPN. Costs about $100/yr but it’s a godsend. Brainless to install and very reliable. Highly, highly recommended.
