Le Tour comes to London

After the excitement of Silverstone, we headed into London for more world-class sporting action. As luck would have it, The Tour de France started this year in London, with a 7.9 km individual time trial through the streets of London.

We began in Trafalgar square, where big screen TV's showed all the action of the stage.







Thankfully London put on a great show with the weather (for only the 2nd time this summer). Perhaps it was too hot even for The Devil?









An added bonus was that I managed to pick up a pair of Credit Agricole cyclings shorts from a cash-only stall at the side of the track. I've been hunting these down ever since Stuart O'Grady rode for the team.. now I finally have them!
