Question, what happened to the downhill coverage we use to get on channel 4.

I was watching the Extreme Sports channel on sky and got me thinking of the good old sunday mornings watching transworld sport and then a bit of Rob Warner action (if i remember the name correctly) doing his stuff on (what is now) an old skool Gaint biggrin happy memories. This must be a good 6 years ago! But where has it gone, reading the latest MTB bike mags it seems DH is back but wheres the tv coverage?

If anyone knows where i can catch the action that would be great. I've had enough of watching freeride action of Xtreme Sports channel.

Cheers

Tom

Its the Worlds in 4 weeks time, 2-7th of September ish.

BBC will be covering it the weekend after, with about 3 hours of programmes. coverage of the 4x, Trials, XC, and then the last 30 minutes of the Elite DH will be covered 'live'.
