    "Philippa York, who became the first Brit to win a major classification in the Tour de France in 1984, will return to cycle around Scotland’s coast from Edinburgh to her native Glasgow as part of The Great Tour, a fundraising journey around the coast of Britain.

    She will leave with the rest of the Great Tour cyclists from Edinburgh on July 20, and arrive in Ayr on August 4.

    The 1,750km route will take in Aberdeen, Inverness, Wick, Tongue, Ullapool, Mallaig and Oban on its route, with the group cycling between 80 and 140 kilometres a day."

    According to Strava (and my eyes) they were right behind me on West Shore Road this morning, Before I turned off :(

    Apparently they also had Mark Beaumont and Sandy Gilchrist riding with them this morning.
