Cycling on TV this week - at a glance

Watch cycling from anywhere

Away from home when the races are on? That doesn't mean you have to miss out...

Many streaming platforms these days are geo-restricted, meaning they'll only work in certain countries, but assistance is on hand, in the form of a VPN. A Virtual Private Network – to use the full name – is a piece of software that lets you alter your device's IP address to make it appear to be in any country in the world, therefore unblocking the streaming services you use back home.

It's great for watching cycling on the move, and the added benefit is that VPNs provide a huge boost to your internet security. Our colleagues over at TechRadar know everything there is to know about VPNs and they rate NordVPN as the best VPN out there right now.

How to watch the Tour de Romandie

Beginning on the 28th April, the Tour de Romandie weaves through French speaking Switzerland over five stages, culminating in a summit finish in Leysin on Sunday 3rd May. The five-day race will kick off with a punchy prologue lasting only 3.2 kilometres.

The Tour will be Tadej Pogačar’s first stage race of the year, and the final test before the Giro d’Italia begins on the 8th of May.

UK: In the UK, the Tour de Romandie will be shown on HBO Max.

North America: Fans in the US and Canada can watch on Flobikes.

Free: You can watch the race free on RTS via a VPN.

How to watch Eschborn-Frankfur

The German race, Eschborn-Frankfurt, may sit at the end of a spring season peppered with cobbled classics, and right before the Giro d'Italia - but it's not one to overlook. 211 kilometres long, with over 3,300 metres of climbing through Feldberg, Mammolshainer Stich and Burgweg (this triple-threat could prove the most difficult ascents of the day), the one-day race is likely to end in a sprint finish; the mountains are difficult enough to quash any early breaks - unless riders are able to hold a dominant early push.

The race will begin at 11 am UK time on Friday May 1.

How to watch La Vuelta Femenina

Taking place between the third and the tenth of May, riders lining up to race the La Vuelta Femenina will cover a total distance of 819.5 kilometres between Marín and Alto de l'Angliru across the week of racing.

This fourth edition of La Vuelta has been described by race organisers as the most challenging yet, with back-to-back summit finishes at Les Praeres, Nava and the Alto de l'Angliru.

Last year, Demi Vollering won the overall for SD Worx-Protime. A year later, she looks to be the woman to beat, having clinched her third consecutive Liège-Bastogne-Liège title last weekend, and her fifth win of the season so far.

The race will begin at 10:35 local time on Sunday 3rd April.
