WHAT a wonderful event to go through Norton – the Tour de Yorkshire.

The build up and excitement seeing all the support cars and motorcycle out-riders and then the tour riders themselves going so fast, if you blinked you would have missed them and this was happening in Norton, not Malton where all other events take place.

I would like to thank everyone who was involved in helping and supporting this event and to all the businesses that got involved, they added extra excitement with barbecue, clowns, music etc.

It all made for a carnival atmosphere with hundreds of people enjoying the spectacle.

How wonderful it would be if we could have more events in Norton, as I am sure they would be well supported. Many thanks to all.

Ken McIntyre, Norton
