Looks like there's a wee visor that can retract. Still, must be like cycling in a sauna most of the time. Takes all sorts :)

Good one of el hippy from the big album posted to fb:

Happy hippy

Wilco said it vapourised off the back wheel inside the shell .

He looks eerily like Peter Sagan there.

A very fat Peter Sagan?

Or have you been at the crack again?

Both

His face and hair and smile are Saganish.

As for this crack. It's moreish. Very moreish.

You must be on good crack if the thing you haven't noticed is those wrinkled stockings. It's like an antipodean Nora Batty...

I'm not mentioning them. They may disappear if I ignore them.

How anyone can look so happy after 300 miles and 4 hours sleep is beyond me.

Go Hippy, go Darren!

What a joke.

What a joke.

@hippy 's leg coverings?

Yes. They’re even more of a crime than those ghastly hpvs.

Darren from that same post

Looking at that first photo, is @DarrensTits the next Twitter handle?

Also, why on earth would you choose a white jersey to ride an event like this?

Grubby, grubby boy.

Cooler than a dark jersey.

Much cooler. Much more visible. I also quite like that my jersey will tell a story of the race by the time I hit Yorktown.

Because white jerseys are better in every way than all other jerseys. Ever. Probably.

Bonus - it will be able to stand up by itself by Yorktown.

Sagan's got nothing on hippy.

Well, he doesn't have 105,000 posts.

Tanja Hacker is certainly the early front-runner among the women. She seems to be going very well.

Simone Bailey not too far behind.

So, hippy's in 14th and Darren's in 22nd.
