Race leaders descending Redgate Bank

The Tour of Britain cycle race 2022. The four race leaders (sorry, no names), speeding down Low Redgate Bank, the B6296, just about to enter Wolsingham. The four were quite ahead of the following pack (peleton) which passed through a few minutes later, 'en masse'. There had been plenty of activity in the lead up to the riders passing through with many police motorcyclists from forces all around the country having officers there. Then there was the following entourage of vehicles including rather sinisterly, two ambulances... just in case.
