I've had a long time passion for bicycle racing. I have followed the Tour de France since Miguel Indurain was winning his record five victories in a row. At time the only following was a daily show on ESPN2. We watched the Saturday night races at the Encino Veldrome in the late 1970's.

Pro Cycling Web Links

Now a good source of live streaming cycling videos is available at Cyclingfans.
(It helps if you are fluent in Flemish, French, German, Spanish and Italian)

A good source of English coverage of races is at cycling.tv some free 2 view but others paid(It has most of the Spring Classics)
(Most European races finish the day between 8am and 9am pacific time.)

Universal Sports came through last year by having both Giro de Italia and Vuelta de Espana on daily coverage.

If you like a good blog on cycling, I Recommend
Podium Cafe.

A Northern California site I recommend is cycleto. It has some good interviews and articles on Levi.

Team Radioshack Fan Site.
