Tour of Britain Stage 6 Roll Out in Barrow

Tour of Britain Posters
Sweeping the streets on Thursday getting ready for the Tour of Britain.
The statue in Schneider Square has been decorated in readiness.
Henry Schneider dressed in green. Is he impressed?
Friday arrives and this police man was kept busy directing three lanes of traffic,  his piercing whistle was almost as loud as his shout at dozing motorists to get them moving.  Nearly time for him to move off as the helicopter appears overhead and the other bike marshals power down Roose Road.
  Here comes the main event.
Katusha Alpecin, Dimension Data and Direct Energie
This was the point I realised I hadn't put a sports mode on my camera - so slow, ergh, unlike the whizz of racing bikes heading for the coast road and the racing.
Direct Energie and the other team cars roll on past and we move off the windy corner.
