I am new to following professional cycling. As a cyclist I have quite an interest in watching yhe sport. What I am having trouble ironing out is all the races to follow.

What are the races/tours to follow?

I know of The Tour, The Giro, The Tour.of California, and The Tour of Utah.

is there a good place that has this info? Google and Wikipedia branch all over the.place.

You guys probably have better coverage down there than us Canucks. The only thing I can ever catch on television is the Tour de France. But for the rest of the stuff I usually watch over the internet. My computer setup has dual monitors so I play cycling on one screen and "work" on the other one.

What do you use to watch over the internet or is it different per race?

Today wasn't a "big race" but let me tell you, when you see a Cat 1 or 2 peloton go by, you get more of a wind rush than the subway!

I cannot imagine what it must be like to be up front at a Grand Tour!
