men's road
race.

Olympic Cycling TV Schedule (North America)

The full NBC Universal 2008 Olympics TV broadcast schedule (compiled
by the Associated
Press) can be found at http://tinyurl.com/5qglmw
It includes all Olympic events that will be shown on NBC and its
partners: CNBC,
MSNBC, Telemundo (in Spanish), USA Network, Oxygen, Universal HD and
sport-specific
channels for basketball and soccer.

The printout takes 17 pages. Broadcasting will be virtually
around-the-clock from
the Opening Ceremony on Friday, Aug. 8, to the Closing Ceremony on
Sunday, Aug.
24.

Most cycling events will be shown on tape delay. (BMX, new to the
Olympics, appears
to get the only live coverage.) So the exact times that bike racing
will be on TV
aren't certain. It appears that even the networks can't say for sure.

But we can tell you the time blocks when cycling coverage is
scheduled. These are
all Eastern Daylight Time and subject to change:
