    A channel showing local and international bike races, rider interviews, the latest cycling news, the latest equipment and up to the minute results would be a dream come true. A channel just marketing bike products and with endless HYPE infomercials pushing pseudo supplements, uselss vitamins and the magic sellers delight word “electrolites” etc. would be CRAPVILLE.
