Again. I can't say that I miss it. TT stages are pretty boring to
watch most of the time and TTT even more so. Mind you it's a shame
they couldn't have squeezed one onto the itinerary this side of the
channel then all us South Eastern Roadies (well some of us - the fit
ones, ie not me) could have had fun seeing if we could get anywhere
near their time.
On the linked site there is a brief paragraph about the London
Canterbury stage:
“After leaving the heart of London and setting off the timers as it
passes by the Greenwich Meridian, the peloton will speed off across
Kent. A flat route through the English countryside which should favour
the sprinters hoping to win the green jersey.”
Do you think anybody has told them that Kent is lumpy?
