Tells us what cycling is coming up on TV....

No, it's not on freesat. Freeview:37 Sky:144 Virgin:172

Thanks.
That's a shame.

I wish Channel 4 were covering it

Tour series highlights on itv4 now. Or plus 1 in an hour. Round 3 already. I guess it will be on a couple of times a week until the final round.

So -- I bit the bullet and subscribed to Eurosport and bought a chromecast gadget ... (£30 for each bit of that)
Got to say it helps to get it going if you understand some nuances about anroid/app/ and google's desire to rule the world because guidance is a little unclear, but now I have learnt how to install my chromecast and then "cast" my streaming video from the Eurosport online to my TV -- I think the quality is really good. Picture is as clear as it was on Quest last night.

I watched some of the live earlier, on my laptop. I am not sure how flexible the "play again" facility is going to be, but in the absence of a TV package from my broadband provider I think this is going to be a good way for me to get some background cycling over the summer months.

The link you gave also says that the Bike Channel will be covering it, though it doesn't say to what extent.
If, like me, you know nothing about the Hammer Series, there's a youtube video explaining the format:

Sounds like a good few days.
Can't find any live coverage on Bike Channel.

I searched on youtube too but couldn't find much. I subscribed to their Hammer Series channel in the hope that they'll post links up when and as it happens. In principle, I like the idea of no awards for individual riders and everything for the team. The chase looks fun, running like a kind of handicapped TTT.

I think the Bike Channel on-screen caption said Hammer Series live 2pm Fri and Sat, recorded 5pm Sunday.

Tbh I've never heard of it before this thread and still have no idea what it is!

The Hammer series would be more interesting to watch if there was a on-screen graphic indicating the points as they were gained IMO rather than just the eventual summary of the current total.
