One thing I've noticed, from watching only the highlights admittedly, is that the Tour of Britain podium girl(s) don't give the winner a kiss.
If that's the case then its a nice touch, what with the whole fact that we're not stuck in the 1970's anymore.

Got it wrong mate - the reason for no kissy kissy is nuttin to do wit that feminist malarkey it's that we ain't europeans. When I meet my French mates they kiss me (and I'm old, fat, hairy & ugly enough that my bloody wife don't kiss me any more!).‘There is No Try. There is only Do. Or do not.’0

True...my Italian friends likewise. But I always read the kiss as an outdated sexist thing - I'm pretty sure Bernard Hinault doesn't give the stage winners in France a kiss!
Anyway, just something to notice after a great day's racing.0 -

He's more likely to give someone a Glasgow kiss in my book0 -
Surely if we weren't in the 1970s we wouldn't have podium girls at all? Not that I'd be complaining if I ever made it onto a podium...0

Yeah and Catherine Zeta Jones. Must be the water.'Performance analysis and Froome not being clean was a media driven story. I haven’t heard one guy in the peloton say a negative thing about Froome, and I haven’t heard a single person in the peloton suggest Froome isn’t clean.' TSP0 -

For such a good looking girl and a professional model some of the photos on her page are really bad - doesn't give a great image for promoting herself. She's a proper, traditional looking Welsh girl though.0 -
