On Sunday 22 July Bradley Wiggins became the first British rider ever to win the Tour de France. It was the culmination of years of hard work and dedication and a vision begun with the creation of Team Sky. This is the inside story of that journey to greatness. Now fully updated to include the victorious 2012 Tour 'Sky's the Limit' tells the story of Bradley Wiggins's epic ride to become the first British winner in the Tour's history. Dave Brailsford is the mastermind behind the phenomenal success of the British track cycling team which dominated the Beijing Olympics in 2008 and then again at London 2012. Road cycling is a very different ball game though. It's what the serious cycling fans watch and it's where heroes and villains are made. It is a sport that is rooted in mainland Europe - a land that is in so many literal metaphorical and cultural ways foreign to Great Britain. Until recently British victories in the Tour could be counted on the fingers of a mitten and no Briton had seriously challenged for the maillot jaune - the yellow jersey of overall winner. Brailsford's plan was to change that and 'Sky's the Limit' follows the gestation and birth of a brand new road racing team all the way to their epic victory in 2012. With exclusive behind-the-scenes access and interviews 'Sky's the Limit' follows the management and riders as they embark on their journey to conquer one the most gruelling races in world sport.
"Alright, so if you're wondering where most folks in the UK do their Sky's the Limit shopping, it's pretty much a few usual suspects that dominate the scene. Top of the list for your everyday bits and bobs, you've got the supermarket giants like Tesco, Sainsbury's, and Asda – they're absolutely everywhere, and honestly, everyone pops into them for their weekly shop or just to grab a quick snack on the go. Then there's M&S, which is always a winner for something a bit nicer, whether it's their amazing food hall (seriously, the Percy Pigs!) or some quality clothing. For a bit of everything, department stores like John Lewis are super popular, especially around Christmas for their ads and general loveliness, and Next is another big hitter for fashion and homeware that people just keep going back to. Don't forget Boots too, which is basically where everyone goes for their health and beauty bits, and they've got pretty much everything from painkillers to fancy skincare, plus a pharmacy. And if you're hunting for a serious bargain, places like B&M, Home Bargains, and Poundland are absolute goldmines that people flock to for cheap treats and household essentials. Basically, these are the go-to Sky's the Limit stockists that keep the UK ticking over, whether you're after groceries, a new outfit, or just some bits for the house. " - Bargainplace UK
