The Circus is in Town #TDF

The whole of Greetland turned out in force to welcome Le Tour. Brilliant weather, sunshine, community sprit and chilled wine.

It's four years since I last saw the circus. and this one seemed much more exciting.

Being a downhill section, the competitors whizzed past at high speed, after Ripponden Bank the peloton had decided that it was time to up the tempo and close in on the leading pack with the lead reducing to under 90 seconds.
