The weather is looking good for the TDF in Sheffield.

 

I'm seeing a lot of cyclists outside of my window today, not in groups but in one's and two's probably making their way to their chosen viewing position. I'm looking forward to Jenkin Road, the commentators seem to be saying it will spread out the peloton with it's 1 in 4 gradient... and it is very steep in places, bad enough on foot !!!

Morning Supes - I'm going to be doing TDF up to the start of the F1, then returning after the F1.

 

I'm not sure what the forecast is for today or whether the riders prefer an overcast day (I can't believe they like strong sun).

Anyway, my telly has auto-switch to F1 to I will keep track on here with the TDF. Get typing you lot. 

 

 

Haha! TDF, GP and Tennis all overlapping. We'll have our work cut out.

For sports fans it's an extremely busy weekend that's for sure.

 

Fortunately for me I'm not so interested in tennis, but the World Cup is causing a lot of telly watching.

 

Also I have no recording device so I have to pick and choose.

Not a clue I'm afraid, it's further in miles and more hilly than yesterday, so presumably q a bit later

 

It says 17:00 on the telly, so hopefully I can watch an hour or so after the F1, which is what I really want to see as I used to live near Jenkin Road and I'm curious as to how they tackle that.

 

Not done any food shopping yet !!
