katieastropheIt turns out we're very good at taking the piss out of ourselves, and generally doing utterly crazy things that nobody will ever forget, from the Olympics opening ceremony, to the finale of the Tour of Britain's second stage:
WE CAN'T STOP HERE. THIS IS ELEPHANT COUNTRY!
"The race then turns for a very fast run back toward the Safari Park, which first opened in 1971.
Entering the grounds via the main gate with just over a kilometre of racing to go the race heads past the entrance to the Safari Drive for a very fast final kilometre, including a swooping final corner past the elephant enclosure. As riders hit the final few hundred metres of the stage, they’ll sprint alongside the giraffe enclosure, providing a unique and spectacular background to The Tour of Britain.
Home to over 700 exotic animals from all around the world, the day-to-day residents of Knowsley Safari Park will be joined by 100 of the world’s top cyclists on Monday 10th September, so no matter your preference, whether fluffy, feathered, ferocious or lycra, you’ll go wild at Knowsley."
WE CAN'T STOP HERE. THIS IS ELEPHANT COUNTRY!
