Sir Bradley Wiggins exits bus at start of Tour de Yorkshire 2015 (picture Simon Wilkinson, SWPix)Where to watch Sir Bradley Wiggins take on cycling's UCI Hour Record on Sunday
Sir Bradley Wiggins is taking aim at one of cycling’s most prestigious records on Sunday evening – the Hour, currently held by another ex-Team Sky rider, Movistar’s Alex Dowsett. If you’re not lucky enough to be at the Lee Valley VeloPark, here’s details of where you can watch it – including for free.
In the UK, Sky will be covering Wiggins’ attempt to beat the 52.937km set by Dowsett last month in Manchester, and there are five ways to watch it – including through Freeview and YouTube, meaning you don’t even need a Sky subscription.
The programme lasts 2 hours, starting at 6pm and finishing at 8pm, with the record attempt itself scheduled to start at 6.30pm.
Here’s where it will be shown:
TV
Sky Sports 2 HD
Freeview channel PICK (channel 11)
Online (all UK only live streams)
Skysports.com
Sky Sports App
Elsewhere in the world, fans across Europe and in the Asia-Pacific region will be able to watch on Eurosport, and the broadcaster has exclusive rights for France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Poland and Spain.

Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

Well, I thought it was large hands and a medium head, but the helmet manufacturer disagreed
This needs repeating more often! Most would be driven safely and the ones driven dangerously would eventually take care of the problem for us.
