Source? I can't find it on the net... if you know when and what time, I
know a guy who knows a guy who owns a place in South Melbourne which is
cyclofriendly and has a big screen............

Source... Mike Tomilaris announced it on the Johnny Warren charity
ride.
I wrote to SBS last year requesting they show it live when they were
showing the tour live.

"A Sunday in Hell" has been around for a long time. I gave away my
copy about 10 years ago. Not as good as "Overcoming" or "Hell on
Wheels".

Anybody want to take pity on a poor cycling fan who live in a county
where there is NO cycling at all on TV... and record Paris - Roubaix.
Happy to pay for the DVD, registered post and for a few liquid
refreshments for the trouble....

Yup! Sunny Fiji... where even the coups are cool... and you can cycle

CYCLING ON TV
I have an Aus bank account so I can DD the cost of media and postage...
and of course a few brews for the trouble.

Is it worth seeding the PR coverage onto torrent?

If it is on live here, I'll be capping it - for personal viewing only,
of course

After contacting SBS it seems they were unable to secure the rights to
this years P-R in time. (seems problems with ASO delayed signing)
SBS say they have secured the rights for next year so it looks like
we'll have to watch it on the web!

Wasn't it a great finish. I was hooked from about 80km to go!

Lama was that you on Koonung Trail today? Hard to keep an eye on the
cyclists given the number of unleashed dogs on the path. One guy must
have figured if his two dogs were lashed together they were considered
leashed, even if he wasn't attached to them. Looked like great potential
for cycling carnage if the dogs took different directions with the lead
across the path.
