OVO Tour of Britain, Nottinghamshire 2018
Clumber Park 8th September
By P Marples
The day was damp but there was a lot of excitement in the air as the crowds gathered in Clumber Park to see this section of the Tour of Britain. National Trust staff and volunteers gave out flags for people to wave. Gradually police cars, motor cycles and support cars appeared tooting and blowing their sirens much to the delight of the waiting crowds. The breakaway group of five cyclists received much applause as did the main bunch when they came into sight and zoomed past us all. It was over all to soon.
