E-Steve; copied the above from the AMA Pro Racing Flattrack site.  Tune up your DVR!  If the CF memorial ride is postponed, maybe we can get together to view the 200.  Rich and I in the past have watched races at the Hooters at W. 6th and Kipling.  Any other suggestions welcome.  Of course that weasel, er, RAT Rich is going to be at the race itself!  Wayne E.

 

See ya at the hockey game, eh?

Subject: [emrat:2205] World Superbike coverage

For those of you who were unable to attend last nights meeting,World Superbike road racing is no longer televised on SPEED channel.However,it has found a new home,and that station is called biEN sports channel,primarly showing european soccor.

 

If you have COMCAST,the channel is 312.DirecTV is 620.To receive this,you will need to call your provider to update to a sports package,which costs an additional $8-$10 extra per-month.Alternatively,you can watch the races on-line,if you prefer.

 

The coverage is in English.In fact,the announcers are the same duo that called the SPEED coverage.Best of all,the three races (including super sport),are shown back to back without commercial or CRAP CAR related interuptions.

 

The next race is not until April 5th,which will be from Aragon,Spain.biEN's tv listings only go as far as March 19th,so it is best advised to check other web sites for air times,such as roadracingworld.com or cyclenews.com.Like the Phillip Island race,it will proberly be aired just 1 time live,so fine tune those DVR skills!

 

Thats all I have,and I will let you know if I find any new details.Post any issues on this site if you require any input from me.

 

After watching Phillip Island,it is only going to get better from here on out!!!!!Cheers for now
