Bonjour mes amis,
Well just to echo all the great posts.... What a top day yesterday and what a great weekend ... I went to Green Park to watch the start on le screen grand. It was good atmosphere. Met some forum royalty there - Big Daddy Wayne looking for the CS Grupetta peleton - always a pleasure... The MA3K - lovely to chat to you John...
Stayed there for a couple of hours then wandered down to the Mall to see the finish line and all the crowds building. Then rushed to Cannon Street to see them come in. Got a front row spot and it was 6 or 7 deep by the time they all rolled in.
Now then cycling is for everyone, not just the elite riders, so having seen lots of riders following the cars, I thought well if you can't beat 'em... So off I rode along the route and got all the way to Parliament Square until the high viz crew put a stop to that.
Then headed to Condor to get the result and have a chat... Then rode over Waterloo Bridge on way home with all the team cars heading south, so gave it the big 'Allez Allez'
What a great day!
Peace and love to all,
Tim
