Should be interesting tomorrow with the chosen route through some of the less glamourous parts of Sheffield near the end of the stage, coming down Jenkin Road!
On the live coverage (at 149.9km), i'm sure there was a bloke who appeared to be starkers except for a dayglo bib... portable bike rack?
The first Chinese rider to ride the Tour is in the Giant Shimano team
Carlton saying that some of the riders weren't happy reckoning he was put in merely to get publicity in China and isn't going to be much help to them in the race.......

That's just how Phil and Paul sound. Standard delivery I'm afraid!
On a flat stage, they have to fill the time somehow.
