RADX TV - Bike Series

Not sure how many people get this channel but they are running 2 TV series about bikes and they're pretty good, if not a bit local for the CDN audience.

The first is "Motorcycle Mania" which debut'd last night (for 2 straight hours with few commercials).  It followed the CDN Superbike, HD, and Superstreet series from the 2011 Montreal round.  Good racing on a wet and choppy surface.  I assume next round gets the same treatment.

The second series  is "Ultimate Superbike" and chronicles, in detail, the CDN BMW Superbike team's 2011 winning season.  Each show describes 1 race and follows on last year's series of the 2010 season.  Lots of stuff in the pits setting up machines, working with the racer's brains, etc.  Manager is Chris Duff, son of 60's F1 Yamaha factory ride Mike Duff (now Michelle).

p.s. Here is a website for the best CDN Superbike rider - Brett McCormick.  He rode for Team Jordan 2 and 3 years ago and simply dominated last yrs CDN series, winning all but 1 race.  As a result, he got a try-out on the BMW WSBK team - read all about his great debut: http://mcracing.sasktelwebhosting.com/
