SUAVERCARVE The RODEZ stage is stage 14 on SATURDAY 15th July. It is confusing in the programme as the days do not match the days of the week as there are rest days.

RIDGEWAY May see on stage 15 Sunday 16th July. Aiming for Montee de Naves d'Aubrac. or Col de Peyra Taillade , but with the amount of people on the roads things could change ENJOY

NYE LOOE CORNWALL (see rallies)

Looks like I am a blithering idiot.
Dont know how i read that wrong.
I land Calais 1000 hrs on 15th so will need an awful amount of good travelling to make the end of the Sunday, but not going Alps way for the next few days. Might make Marseilles but that one could be a hot and sweaty watch. I was hoping to sneak off a day earlier to get the 14th July in as well but hey ho.
Happy watching

Currently parked up here waiting for the tour , got a good vantage point and there is plenty of space in the field at the moment but it's rapidly filling up

Have fun and tell us the highlights of the Caravanne freebies.... (children are already trying to guess)

Looks nice a flat there so be ready with the camera as they zoom by at 45kmh

What flag is that ?

Yes of course, should have guessed that.

Hope you both had a great day.

Van is packed up here, just the bikes to go on in the morning then heading out to Nantua after lunch.

Saturday and Sunday is going to get a bit more interesting i reckon.

What an exciting stage - riveting stuff on ITV4 live but always jealous of the weather and scenery. Do you have satellite? What channel do you watch it on when you're in France (just planning ahead : )
