A big day for Essex tomorrow, with the Tour De France passing through our county:
The official Tour De France website is here. There is also information on the Essex County Council website.
The Guardian describes the stage as follows:
Relatively short and definitely flat, with not one rated climb en route through Essex, but scenic villages aplenty like Finchingfield and Radwinter before the lengthy run-in past the Olympic park and across the capital to the Mall, replicating the finish of the 2012 Games road race.
Great day out, rode up to Great Waltham, packed village with flags and bunting out, then after watching the riders fly past a group of us that rode up together jumped on our bikes and rode the route as the crowds cheered us on. 🙂
