...anybody else having trouble recording eurosports HD coverage on SKY... haven't had a single recording work yet... keeps failing for a "technical fault"... ???

... and just to rub insult into injury, the damn thing did record the bloody football following the cycling (I've leant as we all have from bitter experience that you always record the following programme)

    Not seen cycling in HD but how much better is it than other sports?

    That should have read how much is it compared with other sports in HD

    It's fantastic. Really lends itself to HD to be honest.

    The mountains are always fabulous and you get things like seeing insects buzzing around riders etc.
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Out of all the sports I've seen I think it lends itself the best.

    The scenery of the mountains and the French towns has to be seen to be believed! Plus all the detail on the equipment comes up trumps.

    It also helps working out who's who in the sprints.

    To be fair, we can see Ben Stiller on SD too.
