It looks like NBC is only offerring coverage of the womens event (replay) on Monday 8/19 from 2am to 5am. Don't see any TV coverage of the mens event. Is this being broadcast through something else?

For Canadians, or those in the US along the border, the men's bike road race is being broadcast on CBC tonight at 11:00 pm from start to finish. It should be the first big test of air quality in an endurance event.

Also from another forum if you aren't lucky enough to get CBC you can go to their website and see it there also.
