Sky cycling coverage

[bobbyp]

Just seen that the tour down under is getting a lot of coverage on Sky Sports. I've just got Eurosport hoping to see more cycling and really don't want to pay out for sky sports. Does anybody know if Eurosport covered this last year? Or if we'll see more coverage moving to Sky.

There's no way I want to give Murdoch money.

I'm pretty sure that it was on Sky last year. I seem to remember cringeing at the Lance-love-in muppet show starring Liggett and Sherwen

I think cycling.tv are showing it for free - scratch that, it's looking like it's the tour of california they show for free

The Tour Down under was definitely on Sky Sports last year (and going back further than that, I seem to recall). You'll be safe with Eurosport for the main chunk of the season.

Saw the title of this thread and thought someone was going skydiving with a bicycle.
