    I now it's no Tour de France, but the Vuelta d'Espagne has some great cyclists who will participate. And the Vuelta will start in Holland in two weeks time just around the corner of where I live. The Vuelta will start in Assen on saturday. On sunday I will attend a bluegrassfestivall in Odoorn, and the Vuelta will pass at about 16.00 hours. The cyclists will be hearing some great music.....

    I hope that the Vuelta will be covered by American television.

    Looks like Versus will be covering the Tour of Ireland... Can't find the Vuelta on their schedule.

    Dunno about this one, but their live Giro d'Italia stream was free of charge past this spring. Maybe this will be too.

    I know someone in the Atlanta area who gets this channel on her cable service. I don't, so I guess I'll be checking out the stream.
