I’ve mentioned these in our podcast post, but damn, because there’s so much to watch – 2 different races every day! – so here’s a timetable. This must be what it feels like to be in the Netherlands or Italy!
I know you already know this, but timezones…
BST=UK, CEST=mainland Europe, EDT USA Eastern, PDT=USA Pacific, AEST=Australian New South Wales etc. I’ll do timezones in that order, too

The IG Nocturne (London, UK)
This was a series of city races, and we’re not sure how much of the women’s race will be shown – but it will be worth watching if there is some, as there has been a bit of polemica about the result. It’s shown on Channel 4, and an hour later on Channel 4 + 1, and if you can’t see the channel, you can find it on filmon.
07:35 BST, 08:35 CEST, 2:35am EDT, 11:35pm Saturday PDT, and 04:35 AEST
Nature Valley Grand Prix (Minnesota, USA) – the Stillwater Criterium

Val di Sole Downhill MTB World Cup (Trentino, Italy)
The 2nd round of the DH WC – and the women’s and men’s races are streamed live in the same programme on Red Bull tv, and if you click through, it’ll give you a countdown clock to the start-time! It’ll also be archived there after the race. The women go first, and then the men.
