    Lord Hereford's bush was full of cyclists that had been blown off the course.

    As I passed them a gust of wind ripped an Eccles cakes from my hand, it landed heavily on my front derailleur. In the confusion I took a wrong turning and found myself stuck in the big ring pumping up Col d'Feltz again.

    Apparently the winner of stage 6 - didn't win at all - it was all staged by attenborough (that's david, not dickie - and talking of dickie is that lord hereford up ahead or is he just glad to see me)

    It's hard work climbing on the hoods but I don't want to grip any further down. The idea of waving my *rse in the breeze with Cleat E. sucking my wheel does not attract.

    The British Mille Miglia and Targa Florio race teams stopped painting their cars green in the fifties when they realised that the local Italian fans only opened railway gates for red cars. Suggest you do something similar.

    Anyone goes near my new car with paint and I'll chop their bits off, slowly, with a nail file.
