Tour of Britain 2026, Stage One, Lincoln

A keen cycling fan (watching, not doing!), I talked Simon into coming with me for the day to Brandy Wharf and then onto Lincoln to watch the men's Tour of Britain. A lot of waiting around for a couple of minutes viewing but it was worth it. Nothing prepares you for the speed they ride at as you will see on the Lincoln video. A brilliant day and got to see one of my cycling superstars....Filippo Ganna. 




Filippo Ganna, Team Netcompany Ineos. One of the five circuits they raced around Lincoln.

Our first stop of the day was near to Brandy Wharf. We were on a corner but the speed they rode past was death defying !




The first breakaway of the day that would later be caught
