Video: Chris Froome becomes the first man to ride Channel Tunnel from UK to France

The first man to cycle under the English Channel from France to England; Chris Froome in full flight in the channel tunnel's service tunnel in a stunt organised by Jaguar cars, Sky's vehicle supplier.

 

Okay, so it's just a publicity stunt by Team Sky and Jaguar, but it's pretty cool nonetheless.

Before the Tour de France started, defending champion Chris Froome became the first man to cycle the channel tunnel between France and the UK.

He used the service tunnel that runs alongside the rail line transporting vehicles and people under the sea between the two countries.

They've made a couple of short films of the ride. You can have a look at both below.
