Vuelta a Espana on OLN
is the Vuelta a Espana not going to be broadcast on the Outdoor Life
Network this year? I can't seem to find it on their schedule, except for an October date that looks like a high-lights program. |

I would have thought, following Lance's victory in the Tour, any bike race would draw a larger audience than rodeo re-peats. The VaE was fun to watch last year, even if much of Spain did look a lot like the Colorado desert. |

I think people have an understandable misunderstanding regarding OLN's strategy OLN no longer broadcasts bicycle racing. OLN broadcasts Lance racing a bicycle. There is a huge difference :-( |

Unfortunately more people must be watching the Rodeo & Bass Fishing than
Cycling...It's all about viewership (read that as Advertising MONEY)...The $how with the mo$t viewer$ win$. You can see and hear the race on your computer...give http://www.lavuelta.tv a try...It's small streaming video with Spanish commentary but it is the race just the same! If you wish to see the Vuelta on TV with Phil, Paul and Bobke...you should let OLN know...Maybe we'll get it back next year if enough people bitch...

Bass fishing shows have got to be the least expensive thing to produce in the world too. A fishing pole, a boat, a video camera, a few beers and away you go. You don't need to fly a bunch of people to Europe, there are no fish doping controversies and you can make the show as long or short as you want.

You don't need to fly a bunch of people to Europe, there are no fish doping controversies and you can make the show as long or short as you want. Wasn't there a bit of a stink (so to speak) recently over some guy who planted fish in cages out on some lake at one of the fishing tournaments? Granted, fishing shows aren't the same as a fishing tournament, but I guess it just shows that cheating goes on no matter what the sport. -- tanx, Howard "Nationalism is an infantile disease.

I did discover that my local cable service (Bresnan) does have TVE, a Spanish channel that offers Vuelta coverage. It may even have English via the SAP function although I haven't verified that yet.
