Option 4 — GCN+ (global, cycling-specific)

Global Cycling Network’s streaming platform carries Tour de France and 150+ other cycling events per year. Useful for dedicated cycling fans who want the deepest coverage and analysis.

Option 5 — YouTube TV / Hulu Live ($72–83/month)

Both include NBC Sports and Peacock access. Complete Tour de France coverage but expensive for a 3-week race.
