Here's my vid from the Cote de Bradfield.

I stuck my camera in my belt loop so I could cheer them on and hopefully get some footage.

I was up on Bradfield too. Awesome atmosphere wasn't it!

Amazing, got the shivers when the helicopters started getting close, they (the riders) went up that hill at an incredible speed, awesome.

I've got some freeze frames of Froome etc.

A group approaches ( I think):

A couple of good shots of single riders:

Some more riders approach, framed by my friend's daughter's hair:

Mum and Son enjoyed the day out too:

If we can arrange it I can send the original HD file it's about a gig and there's one with Kitel etc bringing up the rear.

I'm still wondering if anyone 'did a Boonen' on Ewden Bank & had to escape down the farm-track???

Amazing, got the shivers when the helicopters started getting close, they (the riders) went up that hill at an incredible speed, awesome.

I was on the summit of Woodhead (where the snow-road finishes) & when the helicopters appeared over the ridge, after low-levelling at the bottom of the Moss/Woodhead Junction, over the reservoir bridge, I had Wagners 'Ride of the Valkyries' in my head - as in the scenes from 'Apocalypse Now'......................

Just pop it on YouTube, that way I can sure sure you're getting proper credit.

Thanks to Google Auto-Awesome it made an animated gif of some of the images that i uploaded to my G+ gallery

I also have a video of the full peloton going though which i need to get uploaded to youtube. Although i had to put crappy music to disguise the banging on the railings.
