Yeah, I've got the day off for it. Haven't planned where I'm going yet though. I was hoping that I'd find somewhere quiet to see it pass without too many crowds, but looking at the pics for the last two days, that just ain't gonna happen.
Brilliant finish today, well done Nibali.0 -
Froome looking strong0

Fabulous support from the Brits so far. I know the weather's been kind but I get the feeling they would've been there even if were peeing down. Would love to see it down here one day.Stig said:Yeah, I've got the day off for it. Haven't planned where I'm going yet though.

I've been in Yorkshire all week, watched stage 1 on the Cote De Cray and rode the whole of that stage in the week. Was incredible.
And to top it all off I have a VIP space on the mall thanks to my cycling club, can't wait!!!

But can anyopne tell me what else happens, or is it just the peoloton go past you for 30 seconds and you go home?
If you were lining the road along the moors, is that basicallyl it?0 -
Remember standing on Bostall Hill and it took about 30secs for them to come past but for about an hour a while beforehand they have carnival type floats coming past chucking out free stuffMrOneLung said:

Sitting route-side at Pontoon Dock. Plenty of space here:)0

will be just like a normal rush hour in the city with them all ignoring the traffic lights6

just got it in my head that to get the full live viewing experience should just turn on the ITV coverage and watch a random 30 secs of footage then go off and look up the result 4 hours later !!!0 -

Just shown the Thames Barrier on TV, but not The Valley...0

And the Dome, and the Cable Car...0

Enjoyed watching the race, could have done without the nursery school history lesson throughout though.0
-
Good three days with very watchable stages.0
-
I like the history lessons, it makes more sense when they are in France, as my knowledge is poor. Don't forget Eurosport coverage is shown around the world.0
-
I watched it in Wapping. Unbelievable how fast those guys come past. Half hour travelling each way for 10 seconds of cycling, but i'm glad I went.0

...and minus Jihadisson Lee, Black cabs, buses, white van drivers and nause-up pedestrians there to fuck your journey up...Elthamaddick said:will be just like a normal rush hour in the city with them all ignoring the traffic lights
