BBC TV cycling coverage for 2008 Beijing Olympics

So the 2008 Beijing Olympics are in full swing, including the stuff that interests us, the cycling. If you want to plan your viewing or just need a reminder of when the various events occur, here’s the BBC TV schedule for cycling, including the BMX and (naturally) the MTB stuff.


Before anyone asks, yes I know I missed Nicole Cooke’s triumph on the road but I was away at the time! Belated congratulations anyway to Nicole and also to Emma Pooley for her silver in the Women’s Time Trial.

I based the schedule on the information on British Cycling‘s website by the way and since I’m fallible there’s always the chance of an error. You get the idea though…
