David Millar, Chris Boardman, Sean Yates... three of the biggest names in British cycling. Together with the late Tom Simpson, they share a unique honour... all have worn the much coveted leaders yellow jersey in the world's biggest and hardest cycle race, the Tour de France.
This special film celebrates Britain's great achievements in the Tour, with fabulous race footage and sparkling and treasured reminiscences from the British cyclists who rode it.
With contributions from long standing cycling supporters, such as Sir Jimmy Saville OBE, who rode the early Tour of Britain races, we look to the future, to the young British riders supported by the Dave Rayner Fund and the challenges and hopes that lie ahead for them.
