So now that the Tour de France has a major investment in the Vuelta are we
going to see more of it on TV or will it remain a hidden Grand Tour? |

If there was any decent coverage for a reasonable price I would expect Versus to get in on it. |

Last year TVE televised one hour of the stages. Their schedule was very unpredictable. It would start between 11.30 a.m and 12.30 p.m. They did however omit certain stages towards the middle of La Vuelta. All in all it was okay. They showed the ITT stage where Devolder got la camisa de oro; and they showed how Menchov got it back. The great battles between the Spanish riders and the Russian were also interesting. Andre |

Too many weird things are happening which isn't bad when I'm home to either fix them or work around them, but I spend so much time away on the road accessing my system via Telnet or SSH. It's just become too much of a drag and I can use the Médiathèque for free and was planning a long trip and net disconnection early next year anyway .. [EG. There are two power supplies, one to the modem/router and the other to the tv decoder. So I lose my telephone capability. The ISP says to try switching the power supplies. I do that and get my telephone back, but the power supply which was powering the modem/router perfectly (except for loss of phone use) will not even illuminate the tv decoder. I switch them back and forth a few times - same results. I disconnect my laptop then the desktop/server - no joy. I try various permutations of wifi and RJ-45 between the various boxes - no joy. I use a VOM to check the two supplies for volts and resistance and find them to be virtually identical - My ISP has offered no solution for close to a week now but exhorts against employing third party equipment as a replacement for anything they supply and in any case amongst the plethora of power supplies I have, none will put out the required voltage.] -- Davey Crockett |
