There’s another chance to win one of the Rothera Cycling caps on Stage 19.
This time predict the time of the winner on Stage 19, as in how many hours and minutes and even seconds it will take them. The closest guess wins.
To help, note the organisers are predicting an average speed between 34-38km/h for the 109.5km stage and if you really want to get the spreadsheet working overtime, don’t forget the weather, the neutralised section at the beginning and other elements. Or just try a wild guess and see if you get lucky.
Le prix
A cycling cap from Rothera Cycling. It’s moisture wicking, water repellent, windproof, fast drying, machine washable and made by hand.
