Indeed. There have been women's races in conjunction with the Tour of California and they've gotten some TV time but not much. However they did show a decent amount of women's racing at the last Olympics, so there is hope. Originally Posted by azfiddle

My first thought was, what? A day? That's like throwing out bread crumbs.
And most of the (male) comments I just read on Facebook say the same thing.2015 Trek Silque SSL

Yeah, gotta say, I'm not impressed, either. "Let's just placate those little ladies and toss them a crumb. Something to entertain the crowds while they wait for the "real" racing..."

Ladies,
Someone is circulating a petition requesting that US sports TV networks include coverage of women's races:
http://www.change.org/petitions/univ...n-s-bike-races
For what it's worth, please consider signing and sharing. I'd love to get coverage of elite women's racing (road and cyclocross),

Wondering which country stand first in cycling competition this summer in Olympics 2020 in Tokyo. Hope US will be leading the position but let see who is the best.
Watch the Olympic online from home, stay home and stay safe due to Covid 19.
