> Points of interest are:
>
> - On checking the OLN Canada website, it shows Paris-Nice (which starts
with
> a prologue TT on March 6 and the race ends Sun Mar 13) starting at 5 pm
til
> 6:30 pm. I guess the actual TV start time will be updated this week.

> - This looks to be the same programming thats being shown in the US under
> the title of "Cyclysm Sundays"
>
> -Here's the OLN US Press Release and schedule

> -Also there's a UK based Co showing live cycling over the Internet. While
I

time

> Check under "Satellite" to get the TV transmission times. Note the times
are
> Central European time which is 6 hrs ahead of us. Hence 17:30 on the
> schedule means is being shown at 11:30 am our time. They tend to repeat
the
> progams - so for example, Milano-San Remo on Sat March 19 will show 3 or 4
> times on the Sat evening in Italy. Hopefully we will get it here on OLN
on
> Sunday Mar 20.

> So maybe our collective cycling-on-TV fortunes are on the up and up!
