    I'm not sure if this belongs in the general race thread, but does anyone know where (if anywhere) the two races this weekend are being televised? I don't see them listed on GCN+

    Dan Lloyd said on one of the GCN shows that they are still trying to finalise details but they are hopeful of having live coverage at the weekend.

    Just to update my own thread here. GCN+ have coverage of the men's race on Sunday, but not the women's race today, it seems.

    Women’s isn’t being broadcast at all apparently, which is a shame

    Yeah, saw that while looking forward it. Doesn't make much sense

    Watched the men's race. Coverage was very poor.

    Gravel Racing is a bit like Cricket; better to be playing it than watching it. Give me Paris-Tours any day: exciting race and enough gravel to keep it interesting

    Maybe I'm in the minority so, but I would have happily watched the full race. The women's race too, for that matter.

    Yeah coverage was bad. Took a while for me to find it. Eurosport appear to have a Gravel category but not listed when looking at the on demand list. Felt sorry for Florian Vermeersch. Looking doomed to be a nearly man. Strong rider which is probably enough for Gravel but needs to add some sprint to his skillset methinks for the road races.
