Here at pots and pots we are rather partial to some cycling – so we have taken the oppertunity to get in the spirit of the Tour De France and do some re-decoration in our living room. Obviously n o display is complete without some appropraitely themed West German pottery – we couldnt quite strech to finding a vase with polka dot decor though!

We hope that it’s a great race and as exciting as everyone hopes!

Good luck to the 10 British riders too, the outside possibility of a yellow jersey with Alex Dowsett in the opening stage…

Chris Froome Geraint Thomas, Ian Stannard, Luke Rowe and Peter Kennaugh – Team Sky

Alex Dowsett- Movistar

Mark Cavendish – Etixx – Quick-Step

Adam Yates and Simon Yates – Orica GreenEdge

Steve Cummings – MTN-Qhubeka
