Well, down saaarff you have the Tour of England, oops I mean Britain, but we get His Holy Highness, The Pope. I believe that he likes a bit of cycling.

Guess scalping the Popemobile would get you a few brownie points!!

    I'm sure I read somewhere that they'd had to change the London ToB route to keep out of the Poop's way.

    Really? The finishing circuit was great last year. A little piece of me died inside when I saw the route this year. ;)

    I'm not saying anything bad at all about the pope as he blatantly has the ability to shoot lasers out his eyes

    I read somewhere that he keeps loads of cats in the vatican.

    In fact, he's a cat-a-holic.

    If he's heading west along Millbank on Friday evening, looks like the Pontif will be going toe-to-toe with The Headwind.

    It's odd: the Church of England is currently worried about their more conservative members defecting to Catholicism over the ordination of women and gay bishops, while at the same time, Catholics are worried about people leaving due to the hardline stance of the Pope on the same issues. Is there going to be some Cold War style worshipper-exchange? Where would be neutral territory? Saudi Arabia?
