Yeah, loving the extra coverage.

But I'm into road racing, I fucking love it, the strategy is epic and it's gotta be the most physically demanding sport out there.

so true about the demanding bit, being a road rider, its easy to sith there for hours guessing what teams are going to do!

Road cycling is the beast.
Watching highlights, such as on the current TDU, is good. But nothing is better than watching the live full coverage of the mountain stages of the TdF . . . much more interesting than the bunch finishes we see so frequently.

edit: hope sbs has the live coverage of the paris-roubaix again this year. best one day race in the world.

Wholeheartedly agree... its great that the Tour Down Under is getting this coverage - with Armstrong, Evans and Valverde competing this year haha.
