We went to the finish of the stage in Villeneuve sur Lot today.
What a super event it was. Very well organised. Everybody was happy and excited. No grumpy people at all. The caravan is really funny and gets everybody going in the hours before the riders arrive.
Off to try and collect some more goodies tomorrow.

It amazes me also how quickly they dismantle everything afterwards for next stage destination.

One of our local friends is a driver in the caravan and we have a lot of goodies from him. Shirts, hats, key rings etc.

I think ITV4 replay the highlights of yesterday at 1pm (2pm CET) before their main coverage in the afternoons.

That's the one I am aiming for but thanks for the suggestions. Both meteo France and the Norwegian weather forecast are saying heavy rain arriving about 14:00hrs. So it's fingers crossed.

Well the rain held off long enough to watch the highlights repeat - I think it's going to arrive shortly and certainly storm cells are setting up all around.
