One sight sums up the

開始 week of the 小旅行する de

フラン more than any other:

a 抱擁する group of cyclists

スピード違反 into a town centre

led by a group of (短距離で)速く走る人s

who will stop at nothing to

get to the finish line first.

That is what the 国民s of

Canterbury are likely to

証言,証人/目撃する this afternoon when

the 小旅行する's 行う/開催する/段階 One finishes

in the cathedral city on

Rheims Way after 126 miles

through the Garden of England. 小旅行する de フラン

sprints look terrifying as the

riders fight for position,

switching from one 味方する of

the road to another so

突然の that pile-ups seem

必然的な.

It is a 接触する sport in itself,

with 肘s 飛行機で行くing, jerseys

pulled and shoulders

押し進めるd, and, in one sprint

last year, a bizarre 交流 of 長,率いる butts. Britain's

代表者/国会議員 in this

nerveless group is a

forthright 22-year-old from

the 小島 of Man, 示す

Cavendish, 勝利者 of six

races in this his first year

with the professionals, and

riding his first 小旅行する for the

T-動きやすい team.

He 受託するs the finishing

straight shenanigans as part

of his 貿易(する). "It doesn't bother

me a bit," he said. "Since I was

young I've loved watching sprints on TV. As long as

people ride cleanly, I love it."

Cavendish knows today's

finish 井戸/弁護士席, having raced into

Canterbury with the leaders

in last year's 小旅行する of Britain

行う/開催する/段階 which was a dress

rehearsal for today's race.

Last year's race began with

a farce as police directed

riders into a supermarket car

park by mistake. Today,

organisers hope for a smooth

run and that Cavendish

(人命などを)奪う,主張するs a dream home victory.
