Don't forget to cheer on Wiggo this weekend

4:25pm Friday 29th June 2012 in Opinion Photograph of the Author By Bob Hart, Web editor

The day the world's cycling fans have been waiting for is finally upon us - the Tour de France gets under way tomorrow!

This year the Tour's 'Grand Départ' takes place in Belgium, and here in Lancashire we have even reason than usual to tune in.

Bradley Wiggins, based in the county, rolls down the start ramp tomorrow as the favourite to take the yellow jersey to Paris.

He's due to set off on the short prologue course at 4.07pm (UK time).

Check this blog tomorrow to find out the results and what they mean for the three weeks of racing ahead.

Allez Wiggo!
