I am not interested in cycling but as the Tour de France goes literally past my front door, I will stick my head outside to see what's its all about

Seen the Tour of Britain go past twice. The cycling itself wasn't exactly enthralling, what was more interesting was the whole operation and logistics in front of and behind the race.
Sponsor vans/trucks hand out free stuff (always nice) and the sheer amount of team and race cars behind the cyclists was mind boggling. |

Im looking forward to the pushing the bike up a hill while a brass band plays and someone puts a pig on a wall stage.

Walking over from Malham to Kilnsey Crag, a few hours at the Tennents Arms, 10 seconds watching the peloton whizz past, then a wheezing hike back to Malham. Looking forrad to it. Wish I was at the top of Buttertubs Pass, but it's just too troublesome logistically.

you need to find a very steep hill, park your citroen up, have a bit of pin, vin and boursin.
Relieve yourself of any excess rouge in the countryside, making sure plenty of passing motorists catch a glimpse. and then run alongside the cyclists in your hired rabbit costume. |

Like motor racing. A meaningless waste of space. One big yawn.
