Tour de France: how we won the race

How did Edinburgh come to be the starting point of the Tour de France in 2027? With Martin Geissler and Laura Miller.

Edinburgh will serve as the Grand Départ of the Tour de France in 2027. It’s a sporting coup for our capital. But what will it mean for its people, and our relationship to cycling?

We speak to competition boss Christian Prudhomme, and the man behind the seventeen-year effort, Paul Bush.

Plus, Gareth Southgate has intervened in the conversation around how we raise our boys.
