We also sent a camera crew along to chronicle their efforts and capture the fun. We\u2019ll be posting the film later this month, so you can get an close up view of all the action from the weekend, including a fair share of falls.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/beta.welovecycling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Screen-Shot-2015-07-28-at-10.16.55.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-28732\" src=\"http:\/\/beta.welovecycling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Screen-Shot-2015-07-28-at-10.16.55-600x336.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2015-07-28 at 10.16.55\" width=\"600\" height=\"336\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Tour wasn\u2019t the only thing going on this summer \u2013 our editor Adam has brought back a great report from his bike trip to Sardinia.
