Le Tour de France help! Internet viewing?

Post by oompah18 » Thu Jun 27, 2013 1:04 am

We are in the process of moving to mummola ie pieni punanien mökki metsassa, for about a year (our home is being bulldozed and totally rebuilt, it has been declared unsafe for expansion or even improvement!) We cant get canal plus or viasat there apparently. I will go mad without my football, but at least I have my internet radio, live commentary(hopefully) for that. Anyway, Le tour is about to start, and I wondered if anyone can recommend viewing the Men in Lycra through the internet somehow.
Any help much appreciated for my annual fix, kiitos!

This is my go-to site for Cycling races. They have links to streams in multiple languages. Good luck!

Procyclinglive.com
As long as there are young men with the light of adventure in their eyes or a touch of wildness in their souls, rapids will be run.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
I found the English cycling magazines in Tampere Sokos store, and they include le Tour guides too, very helpful.
My claim to fame: one summer I cycled the Pyyrannees W France area, including the Col du Tourmalet, it was even scarier than it looked on TV when the peloton zoomed down! It took me about 4 hrs to get up the col, (I am an around the world tourer, not even an around the town racer!) but it was worth it! The next day, I took a roadside spot to watch the race come by, there was about 2 hrs of advertising cars throwing out freebies, and then the cyclists came, zwoosh, & they were gone in the blink of an eyelid, but it was sooooooooooooo worth it!
