I'm glad they're back but they only do hour summaries weekly of the Giro and the Vuelta.

We have Dish, too, and --here's the catch -- we had the superdish already for foreign channels. We add RAI, the Italian channel, in May, since it shows two hours of the Giro each day. For $12 or so. We just cancel it in June. It marginally pays to have it in April, too, if you're a real junkie, since they have several spring races as well, e.g. Tirenno-Adriatico.

The Dish Latino includes a channel from Spain that shows the Vuelta stages.

If you don't speak the languages, it doesn't matter a whole lot. The graphics and the video itself pretty much tells you want you want to know. One of the Spanish announcers is Pedro Delgado, who won the Tour in the 90's. No ties liek for Phil and Paul, just an open collared shirt. Very informal style, it's fun.
