Tour of Britain 2009
We’re pretty lucky in where the studio is situated that the Tour of Britain rolls past close by each year. As the weather was pretty nice today, I popped out with the camera to catch the action.
A 3 man breakaway we the first through the village, but as soon as they arrived they were gone. The main peloton flew through around 20 seconds later, followed by the remaining few accompanied by the broom wagon 10 minutes after that.
Pretty exciting for a small village, and judging by the crowds who turned out (along with a class from the local Primary School), another great promotion for British Cycling.
You can see the shots here.
