Another British fan who will be there with the whole family, can’t wait to see you guys in the flesh either… got interested in pro cycling at TOB stage in Kent in 2006, and TDF stage 1 in 2007, with Dave Millar’s superb breakaway… and have been following him ever since. He really seems to be in his element at Garmin. And you all did great at the Tour de France. So we expect a Garmin win in the TOB, especially now Cav isn’t riding
