Maybe he slowed down for me... Or maybe I'm a future tour winner I just don't know it yet
somehow I doubt it's the latter...
But again, he was on a track bike, I should have asked what gear he was using, it was impressive though. Steepest hill I've seen and I live in Wales.
I want to meet someone who caught up Mike on a hill;-)
I talked to him for a while on a bike ride, I caught him going up a hill that gets to 30%. He was a really nice guy and we talked a bit. Turned out he was grinding up the hill on a track bike. Saw him a week later on here and kind of chuffed he's doing so well. Closest I've come to meeting someone famous
From what I understand he is likely to arrive late evening - whatever day he finishes. His plan is sailing Cherbourg to Poole which is late morning. The 4th June is his 31st birthday as well.
yep, he's doing astonishing work
maybe he could wander over to balham bowls club for the vulpine fete if he's back in the smoke on the 4th?
