Re: 2011 Cycling thread.

Directv appears to still be giving me Universal Sports (maybe I'm paying for it?)

The free preview runs from early August through September. As of 10/1 it will be available with the sports pack, which is unfortunate as I love that channel.

Sky controlled the race the entire way. Eight guys on the front never let any break go far and resisted any attacks. Commentators said Goss blew his chance to pin Cav on the wall. Cance lost the bronze by a small fraction of a tiny margin.

It would be team UK wouldn't it not Team Sky I'm not sure Gogo's assessment was right if Goss tried to close the door on Cav he could have always shot the gap and come around him or been relegated for going off his line.
