If I was an advertiser, I wouldn't want to spend more than thirty quid on an advert on Bike Channel, so it wouldn't surprise me much if it went tits up.

I've got an old telly and can't get it either, perhaps the tube has gone..?

Sky has removed the channel from its epg! I doubt it will be back

I didn't know it existed but lo and behold, it's still there on the Virgin EPG but evidently it's not part of my very basic TV package (I only wanted the fast broadband). It's not clear which package it is part of, should I wish to view it though.

I'm on Freesat too so that's what I am seeing today. It has been a few days since I last watched the channel so I don't know how long it has been like this.

From time to time there was actually an interesting programme on the channel, though a lot of the programmes were not brilliant.

I'm sure it was still on Sky last night, but over the last few days the EPG has shown the same programmes, repeated through the day, every day, I think we may have seen the last of it, it's a shame as some of the programming was good, but there was a lot of rubbish on too.
As an aside if the channel is no more, I wonder what will become of the Bike Channel Canyon race team?

That generally means we'll never see them again. Channels come and go on sat and Freeview all the time.
