It's a shame, but I haven't been able to get into this race as I did with the Olympics and TdF. And I think most of Britain was with me.
Not sure if that's because the nation's new heroes weren't really feeling it, and the apathy was contagious, or if the poor telly coverage put a dampener on it.
Like I say, a real shame, because the UK had worked itself into a cycling frenzy this summer and the ToB was a great opportunity to capitalise on that and cement it for the future.
Meh.
Well I can't say your apathy was shown on the roads, the crowds were huge! I went out to see 2 near me and there was a great buzz, and I went with 3 non-cyclists too. Plus the racing has been excellent, and Cav has been riding his heart out, determined to enjoy in last days in the rainbow jersey. Another great win today.
I think your assessment says more about you than the race
