New 24 cycling channel on Sky
It's on channel 464 I think) I don't have Sky, but it's free to air (right now - I don't know how long for because I can't find anything out about this channel - the website for it isn't live), so I'm able to tune it in on my LG TV and on my Freesat box when I switch it out of Freesat mode.
If you're new please join in and if you have questions pop them below and the forum regulars will answer as best we can.

What a disgusting comment. Perhaps he should have to meet with the families of some victims of poor driving.

Police Scotland seem very poor when it comes to enforcement against motoring offences. The road policing is also poor from what I see.

So far so good for the bike channel.
Does anyone have the channel number for fr and sat please? Just looked and can't find it. Nor can I find it on Virgin. Thanks
You can manually tune this service with the following details:
Satellite: Astra 2F (28.2 East)
Frequency/polarisation: 11307 H
Symbol Rate: 27500 (27.5 Mbaud)
FEC: 2/3
Broadcast standard: DVB-S, QPSK
Service ID: 52290
I think it may be encrypted with Mr Murdoch's Videoguard conditional access system though, so getting it on a Freesat or generic DVB-S box might not be possible. Still, it's worth trying.
Cable viewers might be thrilled to hear that VM are planning to carry the service, but I don't know when that might happen.
It's not on Freeview.
It's there, thanks for the heads up.
