Another wet day for Stage Threepublished at 10:57 British Summer Time 1 May 2016
Oh dear, looks like we're in for another wet start at least to Stage Three. We'll bring you the latest forecast for the race shortly.
Welcome to Middlesbrough mes amis!
Image source, @sebpiquetSunday Stage Three: Here's a good place to watch the actionpublished at 10:54 British Summer Time 1 May 2016
Here's a corking position, if you can get there early enough.
This is just outside Robin Hood's Bay and is set to be one of the most punishing uphill sections of the entire route.
Image source, GoogleAs Cycling Weekly, external point out, this is a section of the stage that is 1.5km at a 10.3% incline. Most of us would be pushing the bike up.
You can find it on the route here (again, sorry about my arrow-making skills).
Image source, Google/Welcome to YorkshireThe riders will be testing themselves to the limit up here, so you'll get a really good look at them as they power up the long hill.
Tour riders braced for stamina-sapping final daypublished at 10:50 British Summer Time 1 May 2016
If Stages One and Two were more suited to the sprinters, today's Stage Three will certainly appeal to the climbers.
With an elevation of 2,593m (8,507ft) it tests out the riders' stamina with six "King of the Mountain" classifications.
The route begins in Middlesbrough, birth place of Captain James Cook, and takes the riders on a challenging and technical route through much of the stunning North York Moors National Park.
A reminder of yesterday's finishpublished at 10:47 British Summer Time 1 May 2016
After 136km of Stage Two yesterday, it came to this. A genuine photo finish ended yesterday's race, here it is in slo-mo.

End of twitter postSunday Stage Three: Where to watchpublished at 10:43 British Summer Time 1 May 2016
Nick Wilmshurst
BBC Local Live, LeedsI've been having a look around to see where the experts suggest are the best places to watch the race from.
According to Cycling Weekly, external, one of the best spots is here in Scarborough, at Oliver's Mount.
Image source, GoogleLooks lovely doesn't it! If you're not familiar with the area, it's this bit outside Scarborough. (Sorry about my crudely drawn arrow)
Image source, Google/Welcome to YorkshireIt's quite an incline, in the last few kilometers of the stage, so should provide you with a decent view of the riders.
