Sooty Park premieres tonight

To hit Australian TV at 8pm on Tuesday night is a new weekly cycling show called Sooty Park. The show has a magazine format, featuring cycling in all forms and disciplines, from commuters to Grand Tour riders, with an emphasis on fashion, fun and the lighter side of cycling.

Sooty Park will also see a return of the rollers competition that used to feature on World of Sport back in the '70s and '80s, although the rollers will be replaced by Computrainers, with digital readouts on screen. Tonight's episode will feature interviews with Phil Anderson, Phil Liggett, a mountain bike trials segment and the Computrainer competition.
