Cycling World Championships 2011 Road Race - info


I have previously previewed the Cycling World Championships 2011 Road Race in detail here. This is just a post about where to watch it and some interesting links.

The women's race was on today as well - there is an account on the BBC website. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cycling/15047502.stm

(P.S. - I also reckon Fabian Cancellara may be in with a chance)
