THIS COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED

The 2016 edition of the Tour de France or le tour as it's commonly & affectionately known is due to kick off on Saturday 2nd of July. Chris Froome of Team Sky and Great Britain is looking to become the first Brit to win the tour 3 times and perhaps more impressively back to back. No rider has managed this feat since 1995 when Miguel Indurain won the tour for the 5th time in a row. (*excluding Lance Armstrong whose wins are no longer recognised)

To celebrate this year's Tour de France we've teamed up with Chain Reaction Cycles and are offering one lucky Twitter follower the chance to get their hands on £250 vouchers for the cycling superstore! To enter simply head on over to our Twitter page and Tweet us a screenshot of the team that you think will contain the overall GC winner of the tour!

To enter please go to the following link and make sure you include #PYBtour in your answer!
