Tour de France 2014 Route
Thanks Jonathan
Jonathan was kind enough to stop and allow us take a picture of him, with one of Boris's yellow tour de France bike's in Vitoria yesterday evening , have you seen one yet, if so where about's ?
I don't recall cycling ever being so popular home here in the UK, with the success's of Bradley Wiggins becoming the first Briton to win Le Tour in 2012 followed by a gold medal time trial performance in London, along with all the other recent great cycling success's in London, by team GB they really gave the UK something to be proud of. What a great time for cycling in the UK, let the good time's roll.
This iconic event will go through some of our most beautiful countryside that Britain has to offer and will start with it's Grand Départ from Leeds to Harrogate, On Saturday the 5th of July in stage 1 , on to Sunday 6th July for stage 2, York to Sheffield right the way down with stage 3 beginning in Cambridge going through Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and Essex , it will finish on The Mall in London.
With that said wouldn't it be a great legacy if from this iconic event, we could find something that would reduce the cyclist accident and fatality rate throughout the UK.
