I’ll be watching at home with a bucket of Duvel and a trough of chips and mayonaise.
Can. Not. Bloody. Wait.

Im sure hell do well Mike hes flying at the moment 🙂

Without Sky what is the best way to watch this?

Some great footage here from 1994, which was the last time it was held at this course

There is most likely a feed from cyclingfans http://cyclingfans.com/

I’ve just done a search on some tv listings sites and I can’t see any mention of it.
Do I have to watch it over the internet?

Where can I watch this!

Don’t think it’s on TV in UK, Eurosport maybe but def available on that internet link.

Superb
Turbo zone 2 session with the laptop set up in the garage then!

Just to point out to anyone else thinking of watching Swedish Chef’s clip. It’s a very exciting bit of racing that builds the tension really well for 6 minutes, and as an aside throws in some interesting technical information relating to the historical problems of outside broadcasting. The second place guy catches the leader and sits on his wheel for most of the last lap, and then just as they are about to get to the really exciting sprint finish…

… the clip ends.

Thanks SC.

Phew, found the end.

Full of Belgians (same thing?)
Boy, those Belgians love their bike racing. Can you imagine 60,000 or so people turning up to watch a CX race in the UK ?
Hope you like chips with mayonnaise on 🙂

Sorry about that, I watched both parts yesterday and only had one of the address available when I posted that link.

is this on eurosport or sky?
