Found some good news on the BBC today thought I'd share
It seems that the BBC are doing coverage on the NW200 this year.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/northern-ireland/32627393 beats all the other nonsense about picking which wally to stand up and get things wrong next. |

Re: Found some good news on the BBC today thought I'd share
I wouldn't be too optimistic, BBC sports coverage is normally terrible, just look at Match of the Day. Expect a 1 hour highlights program in the middle of the night which will be 95% people talking rubbish.
Would be much better off on something like motors TV or ITV4 where they can dedicate all day to it.

Re: Found some good news on the BBC today thought I'd share
I can't really dedicate all day to it. Also we don't have an aerial for the TV. We watch everything on catchup anyway to being in the middle of the night is pretty much irrelevant.

Re: Found some good news on the BBC today thought I'd share
BBC NI usually cover the NW200 and it was shown on the main channels but in the last few years it's only been on iPlayer. I've installed the BBC sport app on the ps3 and I've watched the Thursday highlights.

Re: Found some good news on the BBC today thought I'd share
Well the Thursday race has disappeared off BBC sport player and no sign off the Saturdays races. Maybe something to do with the tragic circumstances on Saturday morning.
I have just found something called Bikes! on iPlayer which seems cover the nw200 and Cookstown. So what's the point of the Sports player?
