Linda Chapman, of Wymondham, won South Norfolk Council's photo competition, which involved residents taknig a snap of the Tour as it passed through the district.

Mrs Chapman has won a frog kids' bike worth over £400 from local business Howards Cycles.

The amateur photographer, who works in one of the town's pharmacies, has given the bike to her friend's son, eight-year-old Nicholas Townsend.

She said: 'It was such a great day – so many people out on the streets to cheer the Tour on, and a real sense of community. I never miss an opportunity to get my camera out, but usually horses are my subject. It's lovely to see my photo in print. A Huge thanks to South Norfolk Council and Howards Cycles for the fantastic prize which has gone to a good home.'

Martin Wilby, deputy leader of the council, added: 'I'm glad our photo competition generated so much interest, especially on social media. Congratulations to Linda, who took this great picture that really captures the spirit of the day.'

Meanwhile, in Attleborough Ellie and Summer Howard won a £100 voucher for Cranks Bicycles after winning the trail map draw.

The win came at a perfect time, as the pair have just learnt to ride their bikes without stabilisers.
