final Newsround update. But don't be sad. There's all this still to come. | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
We find out about the truth about Tom Daley's micro pigs. And find out | :00:14. | :00:20. | |
how this paddle boarder made history. More than 70,000 cyclists | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
are taking to the streets of London today as part of a weekend festival | :00:24. | :00:29. | |
of the sport. The highlight will be a 100-mile race tomorrow but the | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
event started with an eight-mile ride through central London this | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
morning. Later there'll be a women's criterium which sees professional | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
women cyclists do a city-centre loop, and Olympic Gold medalist | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
Laura Trott says she hopes the event will get more people out on their | :00:42. | :00:51. | |
:00:52. | :00:52. | ||
bikes. It has been growing and growing. They wanted to keep the | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
legacy going so having this on the weekend that would have been the | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
games, is amazing. If it can be an annual event, that is exactly what I | :01:02. | :01:09. | |
want to be part of. Mine is the London right crampy and is a 1.3 | :01:09. | :01:17. | |
mile loop. It is for an hour around the city. It was the track when it | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
was the Olympics that is nice becoming and riding around the | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
famous landmark. And over on the website we want to know if you'll be | :01:24. | :01:34. | |

heading out for a peddle this Some cricket now, and England | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
suffered a big blow just before lunch today as captain Alistair Cook | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
was caught out for 62 runs. It's not been a good morning for the home | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
side, who need to score at least 328 to avoid having to bat again | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
straightaway. Yesterday Australia totalled up a massive score of | :01:59. | :02:06. | |
527-7. It's been a year since Tom Daley | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
scooped a bronze at London 2012 and a lot has happened since. There have | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
been passionate fans, micro pigs and television presenting. The diving | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
hasn't stopped either, and on Monday he came sixth in the 10m platform | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
World Championship final, after battling an arm injury. There's just | :02:20. | :02:27. | |
no stopping him! Here's Leah. A lot has changed for Tom Daley | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
since that important day at London 2012. The public liked him before, | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
and after this they loved him, including David Beckham. 12 months | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
on, it seems like things haven't changed. You get stopped in the | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
street a lot wherever you go, you always get asked for photos, | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
pictures, autographs. It's funny when people come up to me and ask | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
about my cats and things like that. I've got cats and they're like, oh, | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
how are your cats? And the fact that they know my cats names and things | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
like that, it's a little bit surreal, but it's nice that people | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
are interested. A moment he'll never forget is this, picking up his | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
medal, but since then he's had to change the way he lives his life | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
because lots more people are watching his every step. And that's | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
something you always have to remember, that there's always | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
someone watching you, you kinda have to always think like that. Some of | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
the times where you want to be just with your friends and you want to | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
just like have fun and chill out, but it's kinda funny seeing some of | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
the things that turn out about my micro pig that I don't have - the | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
ornament that I tweeted a picture with me in and then all the | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
magazines were like saying that I'd bought this micro pig for �250. And | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
I was like, its funny that because I haven't actually bought a micro pig | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
And right after the Olympic glory Tom was back in the pool, but this | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
time for new TV show Splash. But all of that means if Tom heads out at | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
the weekend he gets mobbed. If I go into town on a weekend I get stopped | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
pretty much by every other person and you kind of have to like triple | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
the amount of time to do things. I do the sunglasses thing, keep your | :04:01. | :04:09. | |
head down and walk. Environmental campaigners in the | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
West Sussex village of Balcombe are protesting for the 10th day at a | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
site where an energy company has begun test drilling for oil. | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
Protesters fear the company will start fracking - a technique used | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
get gas and oil from underground. They're worried the process is too | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
dangerous, could pollute local water supplies and even cause minor | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
earthquakes. Energy firm Cuadrilla says it has no plans to do so. | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
Next, there's been high drama recently on the world's highest | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
mountain, Mount Everest. From next year, expeditions on Everest will be | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
more closely monitored. Officials in Nepal say that for the first time, a | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
government team will be placed at the base camp to help climbing | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
teams, plan rescues and protect the environment. | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
A young Afghani woman has become the country's first ever female | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
aeroplane pilot and a hero for women's rights. Nilafor Remani | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
dreamt of being a pilot since she was a child but fought against | :04:57. | :05:07. | |
:05:07. | :05:09. | ||
prejudice to get her job in the Afghan Air Force. It was difficult | :05:09. | :05:16. | |
to beat cars you know the female situation, all the rules for women | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
here. I just wanted to change the culture of the old mines, that we | :05:21. | :05:31. | |
:05:31. | :05:33. | ||
second class citizens, but Lilafor says her appointment is a step in | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
the right direction. A US man has become the first person to | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
paddle-board between Cuba and the US. Ben Friberg completed the | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
111-mile voyage in 28 hours. He stood for most of the trip from Port | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
Hemingway, Cuba, to Key West, Florida and his dad was on hand on a | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
support boat to map read and pass him snacks along the way. And | :05:50. | :05:53. |
