2/3 stages I think, finishing in London.

Starting in the Republic, it's downhill from then on.

Great news.  I'll be there... no doubt watching the peleton whizz past in a cloud of Yorkshire drizzle.

Lived in Harrogate for 16 years and it's the first time I can remember something genuinely exciting happening in the town, brilliant news that it stages the first finish.
