Yorkshire is the place to be when it comes to sports, or maybe i’m just biased. There has been a great atmosphere building up for Tour De France. Today it finally came through to Sheffield. I wasn’t sure what to expect, it’s strange when it’s your hometown on show. I waited with my friend for three hours before we saw any cyclists. Well there was a parade before, mainly big brands using this as an advertising opportunity.
After hearing some whistles and a loud cheer, there it was the first glimpse of the cyclists. The flew past and I tried to get as much footage and photograph’s as I could. It was a great day, and I enjoyed seeing Yorkshire come alive.
Where were you when it happened?
Ah dear, my granddad is from Yorkshire and I never realised his greeting (“ayoop”) was “aye up”.
Ah thank you for your comment Lana, it’s such a common saying in Yorkshire.
