Students gained an insight into the structure, history and Geography of the event.  Cycling controversies  were debated, theme music composed, banners designed, and mosaics created.   A stunt cyclist from Team Extreme drew an appreciative  lunchtime audience on the back terrace and girls applauded the good fortune of those  who won prizes donated by Harrisons: a bike and an i-pad mini.

When the race comes to Woodford on 7 July, observant aerial cameras will pick out a message of welcome, and a time-line of bicycles emblazoned across the front lawn.  A day to be enjoyed in the moment and recorded in the archive
