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.
