I don't always take much notice of this one. Tuned in on Disco and found Jez Cox rudely interrupted by Ned Boulting.

Is it not "Tour That Goes By Geraint's House - Spoilers"?

It doesn't go past my house, but I live in Copenhagen, so I'm just waiting for the council to bid for a Big Departure

Race Radio just informing riders of a diversion (due to a sinkhole) downa a narrow road with low hanging trees at 40km.

I reckon they should have built a ramp out of plywood and let them jump it

Coming within 15 miles of my house (Southwold) today. Forecast is dire or I’d have gone and watched. Bugger if I’m paying *£300 for parking in Southwold, and getting cold and wet to watch some cyclists for 10 seconds…..

I live 5 miles away from the top of the Tumble.
I was on the finishing line last time it was used and the weather was glorious.
It’s not often you can say that…

You never know whether to believe those road closed signs when you're out on your bike. Sometimes it's possible to sneak past the blockage, even if it means carrying your bike. It's always worth checking. I'd advise the riders to give it a go.

Yep, had perfectly passable roads without moving anything several times this year, google maps still has a short local lane closed several years after the staggered concrete blocks were removed.
