I go, you go, Wiggo

These were the words written on the road at the top of the penultimate rise before the stage finish of the Tour of britain in Glastonbury yesterday.

The ACG, most respendent in their new kit, had formed up for our annual outing to the ToB. Not much to say about the ride, straight forward leg spinner over the levels, but I did feel sorry for the natives, maybe some of them woke up yesterday, surrounded by all the razzamatazz of the Race, only to think, "Man, that was good s**t last night, look at all the lycra out there".

We did see the winner nearly blow it by turning into the "Deviation" where all the team cars are supposed to go, leaving the riders free to enjoy the adulation of the crowd down by the finish line. It was like keystone cops as he stormed round the corner, nly to turn round and storm back again.

Bradley Wiggins was about two feet from my nose and looked his usual nonchalant self. The main bunch (thanks to Sean Kelly) sailed past about nine minutes later, then it was left for a few stragglers to give me the best moment of the day. They looked really tired and fed up. Good to see it happens to the professionals too when they get dropped.

Hopefully we will get a full ACG turn out for the Cheddar cyclosportive on Sunday. I'm still feeling tired so I'm going to use it as a gentle warm up for the Land's End trip. Let others do the sprinting. I believe me.
