What to expect watching the Tour de France roadside in person

Today I'm watching Tour de France 2021 in person on the 1st category climb the Col de Romme on a very wet afternoon at the Tour de France, however the conditions didn't dampen the atmosphere of the roadside crowd at the Tour de France highlights this once in a lifetime for many people regardless of the weather. This is a short video and gives you an idea what to expect when planning your day to be roadside at the Tour de France on a mountain stage.

Thanks for the extra footage Mike, and getting wet to bring it to us ! The tour 'tat' is addictive - I still have some - ha ha, we give thanks to the Sponsors :-) Loved the skis being used as a flag pole - genius idea !

Brilliant Mike, thanks for the report. Same weather as Glasgow today, but I know where I’d rather be 🚴🏻‍♂️. Funny seeing you in baggy shorts 😂

Brilliant last few videos. Well done young man. However, I can't help but feel disappointed that you didn't rush to the end of the race to get a full in-depth post-ride chat with Dylan Teuns and Pogacar. You need to up your game :) JP
