"ARROND" aims to be a general interest lifestyle channel that will cover all disciplines of cycling as well as news, education and product information explains license applicant Andrew Kowalchuk. The proposed channel is currently seeking letters of support from the cycling community and anyone who supports cycling. When asked why he made this application Kowalchuk a 25-year veteran of post-product
ion in the film and TV industry said: “I have loved cycling since I was a kid and as a younger person I did a lot of cycle touring. A few years ago one of my daughters began racing competitively and I got introduced to another aspect of cycling. I spent a lot of time going to races, meeting people, taking photos and shooting video. I quickly found out that the cycling community is filled with amazing people who are extremely passionate about cycling. I also discovered that the great stories and successes in Canadian cycling were rarely reported by the mainstream press or seen on television. When I tried to interest people in the TV industry in cycling they told me, no one cares about it, no one understands it, and it’s boring. I believe this application to the CRTC is one step in advancing cycling culture in Canada”. If you love cycling of any kind please support this channel.
