Santos Tour Down Under *Spoilers*

[brommers]

Marmion is doing his pro tour punditry for this. Anyone know if there is tv coverage? Looking forward to the start of the season.

Bike Channel have live coverage of the classic at 8.45am and repeats of the classic and every tour stage at 3pm and 9pm.

I think Bike Channel only has highlights of the stages, not live coverage- apologies if I mis-read the above post

Not sure if you did or not, as you're basically repeating what I wrote but without times

I had read your post as the stages being live, but now on re-reading it realise I was wrong.

http://www.tourdownunder.com.au/en/the-race/coverage/where-to-watch-the-race#panel5 lists Bike Channel as the only UK broadcaster. It does claim Rai Sport will be showing it, which is often visible free with the right equipment, but it's not shown on their schedule - which isn't always complete.

Danish TV is also apparently showing it, but I have no idea how that can be accessed online

I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you

For live online coverage, the usual websites like cyclingfans.com will probably post links on the day.

Yes, but could Bennett have beaten him if Sagan hadn't lost interest in being his leadout and switched to sprinting himself from too far out?

No coverage of the women's tdu at all.
