Riders race around the corner from Beeches Green, Stroud into Merrywalks during The Tour of Britain on Wednesday, September 10. Picture by Tom Wren.
MADAM – What an honour it was to welcome the Tour of Britain.
The public came out in droves, it was a fantastic spectacle.
What a pity then that race leader, Britain’s Alex Dowsett, got a double puncture caused by a pothole on the way into town which ruined his chances of a stage win.
Gloucestershire highways you should be ashamed of yourselves.
