Tour de France 2016

I've had another great time working on the Tour de France for a few days. I was lucky enough to see Chris Froome win on Stage 8 with that unique but effective descent of the Peyresourde where he distanced his rivals by sitting on the top tube and pedalling downhill!

I caught up with Sir Dave Brailsford just a few minutes after the stage...



Another stage winner at this year's Tour was Steve Cummings who won a superb solo-effort on stage 7 up and over the Col d'Aspin in the Pyrenees. I spoke to him about it a couple of days later...


I also interviewed a rather touchy Mark Cavendish about his Tour and didn't get much out of him!

Race Walking

I went to see racewalker Tom Bosworth qualify for Rio after winning an Olympic trial event in Leeds. Bosworth came first in the British Grand Prix of Racewalking. Check out his celebration!
