Tour of Britain launch notes

Filed under: Road racing, BBC, ITV, Criticism, Coverage — MJ Ray @ 07:31-06:00

ToB Taunton Banner The Tour of Britain organisers emailed me to announce their launch. The race this year will be 7th - 14th September (starting stage 2 in my old stomping grounds of MK and finishing stage 3 in Burnham on Sea, the next town south from my home) and they announce daily coverage on itv4
on their front page.

Well done ToB and itv! That should be a vast improvement on the 2 hours on the last day that BBC were giving it, although I expect it’s highlights rather than live.

  1. Yes, you’re right, the TV will be highlights not live. 1 hour per night on ITV 4.

    For the spectators in London there will be live action to a big screen throughout the race
