Yates brothers eye Haytor, Worlds and pro ranks

As the Tour of Britain heads into its two toughest stages, keep an eye out for the young guns on the Great Britain team, and particularly for the Yates brothers, who made such an impact at the Tour de L’Avenir earlier this month. Double L’Avenir stage-winner Simon has his sights set on a top 10 finish in London on Sunday, while twin brother Adam, runner-up at the L’Avenir, is relishing the prospect of Friday’s summit finish at Haytor in Devon.
