On Monday 7 July, Stage 3 of the Tour de France, will start in Cambridge and travel through north, east and central London, passing along the Thames and finishing late afternoon on The Mall. For a detailed map of the route, visit tfl.gov.uk/tourdefrance

On Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 August, the Prudential RideLondon festival of cycling takes place across London and Surrey. On the Sunday, the ‘Classic’ and ‘100’ events start at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford and go via the City of London, west London, through Surrey and back through west London finishing on The Mall.

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

I'm planning to watch the second stage although there has been a rather large shortfall in the planning costs.

aha but it is the atmosphere - the book Maillot Jaune had a lasting impression on me from when I was a child.

I can only describe it as being akin to downhill skiing
