Tour of Britain 7-14th September

Communication Specialists supports the Tour of Britain once again, now our 4th year running for this fantastic event.

We are now getting ready for another Tour of Britain which starts on the 7th Sepetmber and ends on the 14th September.

Once again Comm Spec are supporting The Tour of Britain and providing all the communication equipment and the technology to help the races communicate during this eventful Tour of Britain.

After a fantastic race in 2007 where British riders took three stage wins and three out of the four leaders jerseys on offer, the 2008 Tour of Britain grows another day longer this year, meaning more opportunities than ever to see the best of British and international pro-cycling on the roads of the UK. The 2008 Tour of Britain will visit a total of 15 host venues around the country, nine of which are completely new to the race, so if the race hasnt been past your door step, perhaps this is the year!

For the Tour of Britain this year spectators can watch the race on ITV4 and track the actual race in real time via the service provided by the Tour of Britain partners, Ordnance Survey.

The 2008 race is looking to be the best ever with Olympic medalists taking part and a host of other international teams and star riders.
