Just been looking throught my Sky plus epg and it say next sunday the National Road race champs are on Sunday at 3pm i believe. It looks like it is live as well? Obviously having Sky as a team sponsor is helping focus the minds at Eurosport.

    How about Jeremy Hunt to win to then take the jersey to the TDF? Would be a good result.

    You won't be needing Virgin HD then :wink:

    I doubt it will be live if it is on at 3pm, last year's race had finished by then.

    What time is it starting then? I think the last few years down here it started around 10.00am and finished about 3pm.

    Oh dear so it'll clash with the England game.

    I know for a fact they won't be showing the NRC on any TV in the pub I'll be in.
