    Eurosport have pulled the coverage, going to have to rely on the official site and UCI results page…..

    This is going to get messy X(

    I was kind of expecting the tour down under to be on ES (although to be fair i can’t remember what it was on last year) and now no tour of qatar.

    Cycling is pretty much the only reason i have eurosport (and the other 30 or so channels you have to get with it on virgin) so if their coverage drops significantly i might just save some money and watch events on the internet when i can.

    TDU was on sky last year and is the only race sky show

    As for the rest its some kind of contractual disagreement between ASO and Qatar, not that eurosport are wanting to drop coverage, so other races shouldn’t be affected

    So everywhere I look it says its currently 1.45 in Qatar, and the stage started at 12.35, yet I cant find any info on how the race is going, official site showing nothing.

    Its like trying to draw blood from a stone!

    Yeah, its not a world tour race so not all the top teams are there. Only a few get an invite.

    No sign of any Garmin riders in the start list on the Fantasy game. Are they giving it a miss??

    I’ll call that bloke who’s got all those Armstrong DVDs to shift, he has more than enough for each Fantasy Cycling player to have one apiece, we can watch Qatar but play some Phil and Paul seven-in-a-row commentary over it and pretend none of this ever happened…
