This cake was made especially for Bradley Wiggins as it was his birthday yesterday.
Unfortunately, he didn't show up to the press conference.

The riders passed through Bubwith a few minutes ago, and received a musical welcome from the local band, Allsorts, pictured warming up here shortly before their arrival.

I'm in Tadcaster where the riders are expected just before 14.00.
Looks like they'll be watched by the racers of the future.

It's great to see so many people getting excited about the race!
It'll be heading through Bubwith in the next few minutes... and then the riders cross from East to North Yorkshire

In the men's race, you've got the likes of Sir Bradley Wiggins (Team Wiggins), the bookies-favourites Lars Petter Nordhaug (Team Sky) and Adam Yates (Orica–GreenEDGE)
The women's race doesn't start until tomorrow.
The one you'll want to keep your eyes peeled for will most definitely be Yorkshire's own World Champion, Lizzie Armitstead.

Only a few hundred people live in Middleton on the Wolds... but they went all out to welcome the Tour de Yorkshire riders.
