Another day, another winner? Who do you think may take this stage?
Which stage has been your favourite so far?
We can't wait!
Ready!
Now this is going to be once in a lifetime
Great day out. Looking forward to Harrogate when the tour comes to the uk!
Great
Cannot wait!
Awesome event - great atmosphere and brilliant day out!!
Green Park very good, couple of criticisms. Cardboard box seats great idea, but at £5 no one was buying them. Talking to the staff, they sold no more than five all day. Should have handed some out free to the people at the front, might have encouraged more sales.
Also, sponsored by a health company so does that explain why it was an alcohol free event? Might have been nice to enjoy a glass of wine or a beer in the sun. A small free glass of alcohol free lemon flavoured 'Australian' lager didn't really cut the (French) mustard.
