Seeing as the TdF goes past my front door it seems a shame not to tie a nice big banner from the railings but what should it say?

Suggestions below please...

On the subject of painting it on the road, i notice during the Grand Tours they have "Wiggo" or "Froome-Dog" painted on the road, i'm beginning to take it personally as whenever i ride my road all that it painted on the road is "SLOW"!!!!

Hmmm a 'Where's Wiggo' banner in the theme of Where's Walley could be a goer...

do it with paint.... the chance that the tour comes through again is low, so make something a little more permanent. 🙂

just do something totally random and big. you'll get your five minutes of fame. like the Wiggo suggestion. and the Free Drugs one, too.

The Buttertubs pass (prior to a re-surface for the TdF this year), still had paint messages for riders on it from the Milk Race in the 80s!

'Where's Wiggo?'

This or perhaps a more localised version such as
Where t'****'s Wiggo ?

I will happily do the 'Where's Wiggo' banner if anyone knows a friendly printer who could help me out actually printing the thing...

You could always get creative and paint the front of the house is the style of the KOM jersey.

Liking Straaaavaaa

The cafe in Langsett is painted KOM styleee

I hope like Buttertubs, Holme Moss will continue to bear the evidence of the Tour for years to come - nack all chance it'll get resurfaced anytime soon.

Not bannering the house would be a missed opportunity.

I've already bought 3 of these off Amazon:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Yorkshire-Rose-New-design-Flag/dp/B001E63ZA6

Cheap, even by a Yorkshireman's standards. I may wear one as a cape, teamed with my now a little saggy Borat mankini 8) 8) 8)

Not sure what I'll wear for the big day though...

Some wag has already painted on the road from Strines to High Bradfield. It says

"Ay up TdF"

Very good!

In a similar vein, I need something to paint on the shed roof, to go with the scaffold tower viewing platform we are putting up. 🙂
