I would expect the Tour this year will be cancelled. Was wondering if anyone knows of sites that have full previous races? I understand biking probably isn't popular here, but I think it's exciting and having a stage on per day will give me something to follow for a month per Tour

Just pay the NBC sports gold package for cycling. It's worth the money

I looked at that and didn't realize there was a biking option for $10 for the whole year. What a steal. Thanks man

They have so many PEDs in their bloodstream there's no room for virus.

I think I’m more upset they cancelled my favorite spring races. Tour of Flanders, Paris Roubaix, Amstel Gold, Leige Bastogne Leige

I’m assuming the Giro isn’t happening either considering it’s in Italy normally in April/May

If we do have tour it will be very interesting with none of the guys having any racing in their legs. It will be very unpredictable.

Also the website you are looking for is tizcycling.io has a lot of old races that you can watch

It would be a crapshow I think, also wondering how many teams can stay funded for a large part of the season with no races

they are currently discussing if it is feasible to do witouth the mass starts in towns with crowds, etc... we'll see..

but i agree, it will be a free for all if there is zero racing leading up to some form of the Tour

Very fake. I believe the TDF will be run in some form this year. Might not be 3 week though

These are more exciting than the TDF IMO.

agreed, but I need something to fill the TV with for 5 hours a day for the entire month of July

but like previously said, if they do have some form of the tour with no previous racing it's gonna be crazy
