Giro d'Italia May 10-June 1, 2008
I'm really looking forward to this year's Giro. It is my favorite grand tour and is usually less predictable than the Tour de France.
The last minute inclusion of Astana (Contador, Leipheimer and Klöden) should serve to make things even more interesting than the race otherwise would have been. Instead of an opening prologue the first day of racing will be a Team Time Trial, always beautiful to watch. The most serious mountain stages will be in the final week of racing. The race will conclude with a fourth time trial rather than the more traditional parade/sprinter's stage in Milan. TV coverage in the US will again suck with Versus broadcasting only Sunday recap shows. For US residents there is live streaming coverage available here (every day except Sundays) for $29.99.

Too bad they are not letting Astana into the Tour.
Cycling TV is OK. If you are a fan and have a good broadband connection, it is worth the price.

At least VanDevelde got to wear Pink for a day. Not a bad start. Sounds like the last 10 days will be brutal!!!
And they have great podium girls:
