I hope it improves now the stages hit the open road
Well it didn't..........
It all has a distinctly amateurish feel about it at times. On the stretch before Thame, they edited a few bits out of sequence, and one minute everyone's stretched out on Streatley Hill, and next they're crossing the Thames (again).
Also, several times, the motorbike camera got overtaken by the riders. When Ian Stannard was on his breakaway, he said a few words to the rider as he overtook him.
On the plus side though, I was pleased to see they had a police officer waving a little flag whenever there was a car left parked by the side of the road. In fact, there seemed to be a lot of police zooming around holding up traffic. Which makes a change.
