Apologies if this has come up already but is anyone else watching on Sky HD?

The picture quality is amazing - especially the mountain stages.

I was abit disappointed with Eurosport earlier in the year with chopped coverage and strange programming (like showing 30 min of motorsport bash and crash instead of the tour of italy).

However they have been great on the tour.

What do others think?

    Yep, I posted on this when it first appeared on Sky.

    It's lovely. How bike racing should be - I'm hoping next year we'll get Paris-Roubaix in HD.
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Eurosport HD - Not sure on the number, but it's listed on the HD page near Sky Sports HD

    412. I know because every so often I tune in and look longingly at that blue screen, before turning back to Fish-O-Mania.

    ok thanks - wasnt sure whether they were showing it on one of their own sports channels or not ....

    Just trying to imagine the spring classics or giro on Eurosport HD... home from the club run, shower, lunch, then "oh ... tiddlywinks has overrun.... in HD".. :evil:
