[Corrects Universal Sports Giro d'Italia schedule below]
The Giro d'Italia and Amgen Tour of California bike races will be running on simultaneous days for the week beginning this Sunday.
While the conflict created havoc for some teams that either had to choose between the two bike races or split their squads between California and Italy, all it's going to do for cycling fans is put them in front of the TV for more hours on days when they should be enjoying the fresh air.
Fortunately, the Giro is broadcast live in the mornings on Universal Sports, while the Tour of California will appear live in the afternoons on Versus. CyclingNews and VeloNews also plan coverage.
The venerable TourTracker is returning for another online run of streaming bike racing coverage at the Tour of California website.
