Allez Brad, Cav et al

Generally not a fan of the TV blip, but thought I'd make an exception this afternoon. Watched the conclusion of Le Tour from a beautiful sunny Paris. Perfect lead-out for Mark Cavendish for his fourth straight Champs Elysee win, and Bradley Wiggins finished safely, with no last day mishap, to confirm the yellow jersey. And only confirmed it today, despite all the chickens being counted after the last mountain stage and the time trial, even by the man himself. Which was a little surprising as you never know - someone could step into the road at any point. Morally that would be no way to lose the tour, but it could have happened... But it didn't so a great day for British cycling on the Champs Elysee. Decided to take a picture earlier in the stage so I could put the camera down and concentrate on watching the finish and the aftermath! I really should try and get there in person one year.
