G's celebration

 As the only Welshman, and a Cardiffian at that,  to win the Tour de France the City turned out to welcome him home.

Club members cycled down to Cardiff  Castle to see him arrive there, but his celebrations started in  Bay area at the Welsh Assembly buildings and he then rode to the castle leading a peleton of young riders from various cycling clubs in Wales.

At the castle he had a civic welcome from the Lord Mayor and various other local celebrities.

    1. He's a very very modest and quiet guy Sondra and the enormity of winning the Worlds biggest bike race still has sunk in.
