    Yup, Eurosport seem to be showing less cycling this year than ever before. No Criterium Int, no Basque Country, no Murcia (which they showed last year), rubbish classics coverage. Pretty bad.

    I wonder if cycling has itself to blame?

    The break-up of the Pro Tour probably has something to do with it. Lat year I think they bought most of the coverage as "a job lot" off the UCI.

    This year is different, they have to negotiate with each race organiser.

    Yeh, but the point is that they have the rights to most of the races and even then they don't show them.
