#6MusicCycles - create a Tour de France themed playlist
Tom Robinson invites listeners to help create the ultimate cycling playlist as part of the 6 Music Celebrates Cycling season.
Tom Robinson invites listeners to help create the ultimate cycling playlist as part of the 6 Music Celebrates Cycling season.
It's to mark the Tour de France, which kicked off yesterday (5 July) in Leeds before finishing in Paris on 27 July.
Listeners can suggest tracks that are cycling or bike-related, great songs to cycle to or even ones linked to a location that's on the Tour de France route - such as Sheffield or Saint Etienne.
The playlist will be sprinkled with tracks picked by well-known music names who are dedicated cyclists - including Groove Armada's Tom Findlay and Hacienda DJ legend Mike Pickering - as well as by online cycling communities, such as Look Mum No Hands.
In addition to using the hashtag #6MusicCycles on Twitter, song selections are invited via the 6 Music and Now Playing Facebook pages, collaborative playlists on Spotify and Rdio, plus email and text.
