World No. 1 Cycle Racing Photographer Englishman Graham Watson helps Welcome the Tour de France to London with 30 Year Retrospective EYES ON THE TOUR DE FRANCE Photographic Exhibition! Born in London in 1956, Graham Watson took his first steps in photography in 1972, working as an assistant to a London society photographer whose clients included British aristocracy and foreign royal families. Commuting to and from London each day by bicycle drew Watson’s attention to the sport of cycle racing and, eventually, to see the Tour de France in Paris in 1977. Smitten by this sighting of ‘Le Tour’, Watson focussed all his energies on photographing what he considered to be a ‘beautiful’ sport – to the point, in the early 1980s, where he was a regular feature at European races, and soon gained access to the inner-sanctum of cycling photographers – a largely Belgian/French/Italian clan. Three decades later, Graham Watson, known and admired the world over, will celebrate the London Grand Départ of the 2007 Tour de France with an exhibition of over 200 of his finest Tour de France photographs from the past 30 years. The Eyes On The Tour de France Exhibition will be held from July 1-9 at County Hall Gallery in London’s vibrant South Bank, next to the London Eye overlooking the Palace of Westminster and Big Ben. Visitors will be able to purchase framed archival Lambda Photographic Prints from the Exhibition. The Exhibition runs from July 1-9 and is open daily from 10am - 6.30pm (except 5th July: 10am - 5pm). ENTRY IS FREE!! For more information visit: http://www.countyhallgallery.com/exhibitions/graham-watson.html

Pro Cycling - June
The June issue of Procycling continues with the Tour of Italy theme of our Giro special issue last month. Gilberto Simoni – now the race favourite, along with bête noire Damiano Cunego, in Ivan Basso’s abscence – and Saunier Duval team-mate Riccardo Riccò shoot the breeze about media pressure, Basso’s descending skills and rooming together. Staying with the Italian theme, Alessandro Petacchi – the Italian sprint star who, until last year’s Giro where he crashed and broke his kneecap, seemed unbeatable – talks about his attempts to return to the top, as does, another crash victim, Crédit Agricole’s Saul Raisin, whose injuries were so severe that it looked unlikely he would walk again, let alone ride his bike. There's a profile of the Tinkoff Credit Systems team – the brainchild of Russian Oleg Tinkov, Russian entrepreneur and former caviar salesman. Last, but not least: Chris Boardman delivers – his view on the great helmet debate.

Cycling Weekly - May 17th
If you're in the market for a new road bike, the chances are you'll be considering one of the growing range of sportive models. There's a boom in long-distance, semi-competitive rides and the top manufacturers haven't been slow in creating specific models as an alternative to out-and-out race bikes.
This week features the annual Sportive bike showdown, pitching Specialized's S-Works Roubaix against the full-carbon Colnago CLX, Litespeed's entry-level Ardennes model, plus the Silk Road titanium steed from new kids on the block - Sunday Bicycles.
Also this issue: Irish legend Sean Kelly shows his favourite back roads in Majorca, there's the inside story on Chris Hoy's kilo world record bid, all the gossip from the opening days of the Tour of Italy, a chat with Olympic rowing hero James Cracknell about his cycling ambitions and the CW staff go back to school to try-out Bikeability, the all-new version of the Cycling Proficiency Test.
