Our reporters will again travel with the race and syndicate copy and pictures around our network of UK newspaper clients. This year's race has been extended to eight days and will run from London to Liverpool, where its conclusion will be part of the European City of Culture celebrations. The 96-strong peleton is expected to include members of Britain’s Olympic team, while Mark Cavendish – who won four stages of this year’s Tour de France, should line up with his Colombia team-mates. "We retain Sportsbeat to act as the official news agency of the Tour of Britain," said race chief executive Hugh Roberts. "They completely blew us away with their professionalism and, most importantly, the superb editorial coverage they generated for the race."
