5 Screens of the Tour de France
With the battles in the high mountains defining the Tour de France over the next few days, it’s hard not to be riveted to the action. Where will you be watching Froome and Quintana go toe to toe?
Tour De France – Rest Day… The Best Of The Rest
2655 km ridden, 16 Stages down, 2 weeks of almost continuous racing completed, and with the hardest stages yet to come, today’s “rest day” will surely be welcomed by riders like a bacon buttie the morning after a big night on the town.

Women’s Tour: Stage Two
The beauty of the Women’s Tour is that we only have to conquer one mid-race transfer. After spending the first part of the race in Corby, Northants, we’ve now reconvened in Colchester, Essex, for the closing stages.
Womens Tour: Stage One
Women’s Tour of Britain – Stage One
La Fuga’s John Deering is embedded with the crack US / Canadian squad Optum-Kelly for the duration of the Women’s Tour to provide the team support.
Yesterday’s first stage was a brisk 94kms from Oundle to Northampton.

I’ve been fortunate enough to have been on a few behind-the-scenes type sporting affairs, funnelled through corridors, shaking hands with people you recognise on the tv at football matches, F1, etc. It’s all very nice, but you feel as though you’re on a bit of a conveyor belt.
