Well, I'll be dipped in @$#$. OLN has committed to "some" cycling coverage this year... They have on tap some coverage of the classics, Giro, TdF and World Championships. Not great, but not bad.

I know.... Bizarre isn't it ? It's like covering all but the 5th game of the World Series.
I have had to switch to DirecTV to get OLN for 2006. Not bad though, the package is cheaper and I get 2 addtional receivers.

The Vuelta was broadcasted as web-tv on www.lavuelta.com last year (for free!).

the caveat - its tiny, pixelated, very difficult to run on a Mac, they cover only the last hour or less and there is no commentary - not even in spanish. Definitely not my preferred method of watching, but I take what I can get.

I noticed that they have no domestic (US) races listed. ESPN2 is covering the TdCal starting this Sunday. Maybe one will pick up at least a highlight show of TdGeorgia. And maybe OLN will add a few more throughout the year.

OLNs coverage is at least as good, maybe a tad better, than last year. As I recall, a lot of last year's coverage was a week or longer delayed.
I haven't found any standard premium channels that carry cycling.
