As a throwawy line in an article today (about OLN having a camera, but not having their own live feed and not getting LA on camera at the end of the final stage), it was mentioned that OLN had its three highest ratings ever in stages of the Tour this year, with the last stage their highest ratings ever, period, for any event.
Guess it at least doesn't discourage more coverage in the future.

It should encourage more coverage. Especially when you consider that these ratings come on top of last years record high ratings. I'm hoping they will give the other tours more coverage than they are giving them now. A live feed in the morning and then a couple of hours in the evening would be ideal. No need for fluff programming as a time filler. -------------- Alex

Sounds like they'll probably take that as a big Yes for Al to stay.

I sent them email with a THANK YOU for their terrific coverage. 99% of the coverage was outstanding.
Send them another email complaining about pulling the Vuelta coverage. The moderator on their forum said they will have ONE 1-hour highlight show... no daily coverage.
