    Massive crowd in Malahide at least. Nice sunshine also. Whatever about the lack if hype the crowds have certainly turned up.

    Swords sailing club are out in the Estuary and asked everyone to wear something pink!

    Whoever organised the Malahide welcome should be congratulated. Fun fair, live music and a big screen showing live coverage. Delighted I brought a couple of very excited kids here rather than the finish area.

    I'm genuinely worried about the run in to the finish at this rate.

    No effort made at all up in city you would think there would even be flags. Road at corner of Lombard streets surface is very poor

    Now we have motocross and cycling commentary on Eurosport!

    It's a bit strange they have no barriers seperating crowds from the cylists?
