There were a few people interested in the Giro thread, so perhaps there's interest in this year's broadcast schedule for le Tour.

There goes another month of lost productivity for me.

Gotta get my wife to get TSN for the month again on Bell. It'll be really great with Ryder in the tour after a great Giro d'Italia win. He did great last year in the Tour, placed 6th.
The PVR is a life saver so I'm not a slave to the clock. Plus I can skip the rather redundant commercials that keep showing over and over. But I will watch the tour near the end live if possible.

Would anyone know a great "Live" website to watch while I'm (ahem!) at work? Live texting would be fine. Thanks!

Would this free app be of any use to you?

They were great for following the Giro, and many of the other major races this season.

Racing starts this Saturday.

Ryder Hesjedal is now in eighth place after stage 3 of the TDF. Still early of course in the Tour but Ryder is better in the mountains so that's even more promising.
Wow thanks TDN2 HD! Love watching the TDF in HD for the first time. Just awesome!

Ryder Hesjedal is now out of the tour, bummer! He was injured in one of the most serious crashes that I have seen in years taking out many riders. Oh well, hope we can cheer our Ryder for the Olympics!
