I know there was a thread recently about the Bike Channel in trouble, but it's disappeared from Sky (464). Has it gone for good?

Was watching it on Sunday. Yeah, gone. Checked the direct satellite tuning in case it's just the guide number gone, but it's not being broadcast on the satellite.

RIP.

I'm going to have to Google how the 2 lads did who were training to be part of the Canyon squad.

Gutted, I'd forgotten that I watched all the cyclocross on their last winter, looks like it's back to watching it in Flemish on YouTube.

I used to flick it on (on freesat). Mostly tosh. The Mrs will be pleased though!

Still on Virgin (552) right now. I wouldn't have paid extra to get it, but I'll be sad to see it go, there have been some good things on it which wouldn't have found a TV broadcast outlet.

No longer broadcasting in the U.K. Is the message on virgin 552. A shame as I quite liked it.

Tried it last night on Freesat 251 via Humax box. For about 5 seconds it appeared to work and I had a picture and EPG details on the bottom of the screen. Then closed down automatically and returned me to previous channel. Tried again and get 'Channel Unavailable'.

Shame as I used to watch the XC & Dh events on there as well as other stuff like MTB adventures. ( OT: much prefered 1st series)
