The final leg of the Tour of Britain took place on the streets of central London last Sunday. I must confess I knew nothing about it until I was trying to get to another 'Open House' visit and found the circuit had blocked my route. I got caught up in the excitement of it all. Some of the very young riders have a future of fame ahead of them. One young boy, must have been all of 8 was giving his father a run for his money. Racing ahead each time the circuit passed the compere's tent. Having now looked up information about this event I discover that it is a major event for elite athletes (as well as rising stars) that takes place over eight days.It's worth reading about it on the web site here.
