I know I probably do this every year but it's well worth repeating for those who can't be arsed reading back through the thread or for newcomers.
Rather excellent piece of music. I've forgotten how to embed and I'm far too busy to work it out now. Charlemagne you could do it if you have time.

I wish they would stop going on about the size of the crowds.
It's in Yorkshire, it's free to watch, of course there are going to be massive crowds. 
If it was in Scotland, the riders would
have to go past us twice!
Cavendish has just gone down at the finish at Harrogate..
It looks like he could have broken his collar bone
The commentators were talking about what a proud Englishman Cavendish is. But doesn't he live in the Isle of Man?
yeah but isle of man is classed as part of england

His Mother is English and his Father is from the IOM. His Mum is from Harrogate and he spent a lot of time there after his parents split up.
It looks like he's out of the tour now, that's almost certainly a broken collarbone. Still, he can always get Peta to dress up as a Nurse to lift his spirits
Dislocated collarbone for Cavendish apparently, don't know what that means in terms of whether he can continue in race

His team are saying that it's 'Ligament ruptures with an AC-joint dislocation', whatever that means.
They will decide if he's fit to continue tomorrow morning
Not a great fan of Mark Cavendish, he's a bit arrogant. But i was pleased to read that he's accepted responsibility for the crash and it was his fault
