Post One - Introduction

It is nineteen days until the Tour de France starts in London;the day after the race travels through Kent and into the historic city of Canterbury. For English cyclists, it is a great chance to see le Tour on home soil for the first time since 1994. Many more are luckier - the event passes through their hometown. It may even go past their house. If that applies to you, don't expect to go anywhere on July 8th.

I am in the latter category. I currently live in Brompton, and the race passes through the aptly-named Brompton Road on its way out of Gillingham into historic Rochester.



However, I won't be there to watch the race - my viewing points are as follows:

Prologue - The Mall
Stage One - The Mall (Roll Out), Strood High Street, Corporation Street (Rochester), St. Margarets Street (Rochester), Rheims Way (Canterbury - finish)

This blog will focus mainly on the Tour in England, particularly the preparations in the Medway area. The Cyclosportive event on Sunday, July 1st (http://www.everydaycycling.com/events.aspx?fid=598) will also be covered.

Feel free to get involved, that's what Blogs are there for. Hopefully I'll be seeing some of you in and around London come July!
