It looks like Dakar TV coverage is on the NBC Sports Channel. Here is a link to the US tv schedule. I think you can stream some coverage directly from Niehart's link. For some us Comcast users, you have to DVR since coverage is in the middle of the night. PNW users, it's Comcast 626 at 11:30 Sat and Sun night.

Not all providers are repeating coverage, so you may wish to DVR this.

Wait... so there is not one single entry in the bike race from the US?

WTF is up with that?

Nevermind. I'm a tard. I was looking at last years results, not the start list. There are 2 US starters this year. Pretty sad actually considering there are 196 bike entries

Thanks for the heads up Pops. With Dish, looks like my only option is streaming...$hat.

Thanks, Dave!

Watch for a grinning Q-tip Texican in the crowd. He's touring Peru for 3 weeks on a XR650.
