Steve Cummings has been crowned the winner of the Tour of Britain after he safely negotiated the eighth and final stage in London on Sunday.
Cummings, riding for Dimension Data, finished in the pack as Australian Caleb Ewan won the stage at Piccadilly Circus to end the 16 lap, 100 kilometre course.
The 35-year-old Cummings, a two-time runner-up, is the second British winner since the Tour's 2004 rebrand, after Sir Bradley Wiggins in 2013.
"Finally I can smile and enjoy it," he said. "It's been a tough week. It was so close that it wasn't done until I crossed the line.
Dutchman Jasper Bovenhuis won the sprint classification, Belgium's Xandro Meurisse was best climber and Dylan Groenewegen, also from the Netherlands, won the points classification. Team Sky won the prize for best team.
