TDF Friday **SAFE** Info req'd

[G-Zero]

I caught a little bit of TDF helicopter footage this afternoon, circling a river setting, with a castle built on a bridge and some fantastic gardens surrounding it. Unfortunately, I missed the location and I'm getting it in the neck off the missus as she would like to know where it is.

If any of you saw it, or will be watching recorded footage later, can you put the name up please.

I'll be watching out for it on the highlights later, but as it was away from the race there's a good chance that it won't be on.

Cheers.

Got it on my sky box.

Have you got any idea how far into the stage it was? How many km to go?

I saw that, too, and was equally impressed.

I'll try and find the route map and google image names that come up.

Here's the route map, courtesy of an earlier post :-)


Edit it could be Chatteu-sur-Indre or Chatteu-Renault

I don't think it was this, but I might be getting warmer!

BINGO! Chapeau!

I was working down the Loire river and getting wet and disoriented!

I have a postcard of that on my toilet door. Parents visited there on holiday a few years ago.
