Well watch Eurosport then,
Well watch Eurosport then, not point in preaching here in repetitive posts 👿

But Eurosport have waffle, many adverts that are repeated every single ad break. I know how to cook up sidi shoes….. 😀

ITV interact just as much as Eurosport. But i’m saying no more as you are just bringing up things that have been brought up a number of times over the last two season’s.

People watching and getting involved in cycling is all that matters. If ITV were to take on some woman’s cycling, then everyone would be raving about them no matter on the content of their programs, but just for the sake of woman’s cycling. Someone needs to take it on.

Well Pinnacle is Evans own brand, so why not jump on it if a high profile person is riding on of your bikes.

The lack of traffic is worrying though 😕

But its not a little extra if you are on freeview for instance. You then have to pay monthly to get Sky or Virgin just to have a TV full of repeats and shite apart from a few channels.

Whats the minimum for a Sky subscription with the package Eurosport is in? Around £30 a month?

Yes you can just pay for an online subscription, but that means you have to be at your device and connected to the internet when you want to watch it, not an option for some throughout the tour’s.

This is where ITV comes into its own. Its aimed at those who cannot sit and watch during the day and are not going to pay out for something they may never use apart from a few times a year. ITV have it perfect with their highlights program for people, which is also available online for free if you miss it on the TV.

Their live coverage is shocking though

So you start your life on the forum with ITV is killing Eurosport, then the only thing you have to say is they need to be known better and ITV are crap at coverage……

You might want to consider your title’s a bit better.

Because all I see here is another ITV are crap posting and that people should watch Eurosport. Which I think you’ll find here, most people do or via online stream’s. Anything to avoid ITV.

But there are a few who like Phil and Paul.

So what you are saying is Eurosport should advertise their USP’s more? 😕

I don’t think they are just cashing in on the TdF though, They have been showing it for a few years and also the Vuelta. They also show things like the Tour Series (previously Halfords tour series).

They do show other things on ITV that Eurosport don’t show. So people will watch what they like and also can afford.

How do you purpose to make viewers aware?

I think anyone in the cycling community is well aware of the difference’s

Yes Eurosport is the home of cycling and where I watch all pretty much all my cycling. But you also have to remember, Its a “premium” channel, you have to pay to watch it.

ITV is a FTA channel, so many people who have freeview will stick to that. You need to have Sky, Virgin or an online subscription to watch Eurosport.

So trying to compare them is impossible 😉

I’d like to know exactly how you think ITV is killing Eurosport though, I don’t see it at all.

Also, why not include the BBC? They show alot of track cycling which compete’s with Eurosport’s coverage.

As said, if it aint broke don’t fix it, if you are not having any problems, then count yourself lucky.

You could always snatch a bargain from me though if you are looking to experiment with different settings on pedals. The most adjustable ones on the market
