I'm in the same boat Smiler, but I think I might have to pay for something next year, can't do a year without MotoGP :( , but it depends on where I'll be at the start of the season, if I'm still where I a now I think I'll just pay the MotoGP website subscription as I can't get BT Broadband in my current house situation. If I move and need to get my own broadband then I'll probably go with BT just for the BT sport for free. Don't like being put in that sort of position though :evil: :evil: ...

I just had a look at the VIP Box website, how does it work and will it still be possible to view motogp when it goes out on BT Sport?

Trouble is with BT sport is that it is broadcasted via sky. You can get it on a not quite so legal setup but the kit is quite expensive for the initial outlay, but there are no subscriptions AND you need broadband. With the amount of TV on offer it would pay for itself within 4 months.

I've got BT Sport HD

If anyone wants to come watch MotoGP at mine next season they are more than welcome.

She is a biker too (although without a bike at present) so she will be watching too.

The offer is there though.

Anybody know of a cafe or pub with BT sport where bikers would be welcome? A transport cafe would be ideal for all day breakfast and mugs of tea.

I would stream from motogp site but I only get 1.3mgb and it needs a min 4mgb sec so that's a non starter. Like most people I object to being pushed into having BT.
I'd be happy to ride 50/60mls to watch with a group of enthusiasts and enjoy a ride out as well.
