Sorry if this has already been posted, but I’ve only just spotted it.
Freesat channel 251 is a new channel dedicated to cycling. Loads of stuff, including UCI mtb world cup highlights.

Not sure if it’s on freeview, sky etc

We have freesat in the bedroom…..found it!

Don’t need to get out of bed to enjoy cycling now

Apparently it has been on TV since December, but my freesat box has only just found it.

Its on sky 464 and virgin 552

Been available on my Virgin since the channel came here

Just watched a dubbed Italian programme about MTB set up. Not the greatest half hour of cycling TV I’ve watched, but I’ll keep persevering.

Had it on sky for a good while, most of the program are dubbed italian stuff. Don’t think I’ve ever watched a full program on it yet.

Ride The Divide is a good programme they show now and again. Most stuff is badly dubbed Italian stuff. The UCI stuff is great to watch.
Edit…that’s a lot of stuff 😀

JamieP, what TV package do you have? I only have the basic one (just with Virgin for the 200mb broadband).

Have mentioned this a few times… they shoed the UCI Downhill rounds and watched that Cranxworx racing on it, which was great. I suppose you just have to keep flicking over to the schedule to catch something good (cos some of it is attrocious!)

Just had to check cos I’ve been with them since the start. L. I guess you are M+

It did recently have In Inspired To Ride, which is normally a paid for film

Yeah, M or M+ 🙂

There was a documentary about TdF mountain stages a few days ago which was perfectly informative and entertaining…… but had some of the funniest wildlife foley sound effects I’ve ever heard for the landscape cutaways.
