Anyone been watching it?

I'm looking forward to tomorrow's stage for the climbers in the Alp Duez.

I'm just back from taking my bike out for a spin.

The Tour got me back in the mood so I oiled the bike up, went out and ended up with a snapped chain. :?
Maybe I should just stick to watching it on telly.

Funnily enough since joining FS my bike has been out of mothballs. Biking to the pub in the next village with eldest daughter. Sorry to hear about your chain. You must have got too strong from all the rowing. Hope it was not too far to walk home.

No worries - I was just 5 mins from home at the time.
