I wonder if Contador would be riding this if he was certain to be allowed to ride the Tour ??
A few live stages on SBS would be nice

that'll be good for a nice full-tv picture, but should be able to find streaming sites through steephill.tvChuck wrote:On Cycling Central yesterday Mike said there would be "selected" important mountain stages and the final stage live on SBSroller wrote:+1 YES PLEASE!!Chuck wrote:A few live stages on SBS would be nice

Who's everyone tipping for the Maglia Rosa? My tip is Nibali - if he is racing the Giro this year...

he's had a good lead up. so has Le Mével but i think the "toughest giro" be too tough. Petacchi will be the top sprinter...he's looking lean and climbing well too.bella26 wrote:My tip is Nibali - if he is racing the Giro this year...

The first of cycling's three grand tours, the Giro d'Italia, gets underway this month. Tune in to SBS for daily highlights at 6pm on SBS TWO from Sunday 8 May plus catch four live stages including Stage 9, Stage 14, Stage 20 and Stage 21 also on SBS TWO and streamed LIVE at Cycling Central.Chuck wrote:A few live stages on SBS would be nice

Monday and Tuesday I can also see at the same time...30mins..
Sounds like they only provide full coveage for the Tour De France?
This might be more helpful :
http://www.steephill.tv/giro-d-italia/
EDIT********************
Actually for those who have Eurosport on Foxtel or Austar this might help
They are calling it "Tour of Italy" - Starts on Saturday (Why the F*&k they couldn't call it what it is!!!)
Starts Saturday night - 10:30pm AEST - goes until 01:30AM Sunday Morning.
Sunday night - 10:15pm - 01:15am
ETC... and each day after that...
People with Foxtel who have IQ's or IQ2 and the Eurosports package should be able to record this via their online web tvguide
http://www.foxtel.com.au/whats-on/tv-guide/default.htm
People with AUSTAR and MyStar or MyStar HD boxes also should be able to setup recordings using the AUSTAR online tvguide- again you will have to have the eurosports package
http://tvguide.austar.com.au
Hope this helps....

Their national race should be called by the correct name. Had I not looked it up on Eurosport directly and as the search functions on the Tvguide only show SBS coveage when you type in "Giro"
