Tells us what cycling is coming up on TV....

Erm.............how do I do this? Currently afflicted by one of my "stupid" attacks.

http://tvchannellists.com/List_of_channels_on_Freesat_(UK)#Non-Freesat_Mode is the basic info, but what freesat receiver do you have? The exact method is different for each model.

Have you got this sorted yet @User269 ?

Organiser's Site In Usefulness Shocker! There's a fairly comprehensive Giro TV coverage guide at http://www.giroditalia.it/eng/giro-in-tv/

Which has already been proven wrong, as "“TGiro” daily review on Rai Sport 1 @20:30 CET presented by Andrea De Luca" was broadcast 20:00-20:30 tonight so I missed it - oh well, it was only an ITT.

Thanks, yes & no. Waded through the Humax HDR 1100s menu, input the settings, OK, then.........well that's it really. Still can't actually see the channel I was hoping to see.
It's of no matter. I realise that there is no way I want to watch 4+ hours of live coverage of any cycle race, apart from the odd TdF stage. All I want is professional quality edited highlights of the day. It boils down to Phil & Paul etc. as far as I'm concerned. I find Eurosport unwatchable, and not just because I haven't got it any more. Great coverage of the Giro on ITV4 previously, but alas no more. I think it's crazy they're not covering it. We've also enjoyed La Vuelta in recent years. Next thing, they'll not be bothering with the TdF either.

When? I'm pretty sure I've had itv4 since it started and I don't remember them ever having it - only the Tour and recently the Vuelta and delayed highlights of some classics, plus some British races.

OK, although most of the racing is highlights at night and there is plenty more on Bike than just the racing. Again you need to scan for "free to air" channels. I did see this,

Thanks, yes that's exactly what I did. I tried it 3 times and eventually it downloaded all available non freesat channels, hundreds! Had a few minutes of scrolling through the list but no sign of Bike channel. The schedule on the website for Bike channel, an Italian based channel I believe, shows no broadcasts of the Giro for any time during the forthcoming week.
QED.

 

[Leaway2]

Yes I believe it is an Italian based channel. There is no Giro on it, but tour of Romandie, Tirreno-Adriatico, Turkey, have all been on recently.

Just rescanned FTA channels on a Humax Foxsat, 464 found inc radio, Bike Channel is 200th in the list. I assume your dish is aligned correctly, needs to be looking at 28.2 degrees east.

The Baloise Belgium Tour website has live streaming from 2pm. I think that probably means 1pm to us.

The London Nocturne is live on Eurosport 8.00pm Saturday 4th June

Criterium du Dauphiné highlights ITV 4 Sunday 8pm and then 7pm daily. Coverage team seems to be Imlach, Boulting and Millar again I don't know if we will get live coverage of the last stage/s or only if a Brit does well.
