We managed to get Holly out of school for a couple of house and rode up the road to Brocton to watch the Skoda King of the Mountains Climb from Brocton up to Glacial Boulder.
Originally we were just going to ride up to where we were going to watch but Holly got a good reception form the crowds lining the climb so we carried on up to the Skoda finish line where she got a really big cheer. Hopefully the feeling will inspire her for the future.
We came back down and watched on a slightly up hill section without too many others with good views down the road. we scribbled on the road with chalk, met up with more friends and started the wait. After what seemed like hundreds of police motorbikes, sirens blaring through came the tour. All over in 30 seconds but we got to see our heroes close up.
