Froome completes remarkable journey
When Chris Froome crossed the finish line in Paris tonight he ticked off the final kilometre of a remarkable journey from the mountains of Kenya to Tour de France glory on the Champs-Elysees.
British victories in the Tour suddenly resemble buses – you wait 99 Tours for the first one and then two come along at once – but the significance of Froome’s win will reach much further around the globe than that of Bradley Wiggins 12 months ago.
