Tour de France.. in LONDON!

Big Ben Cyclists

If I can’t make it to le tour, le tour comes to me! Ha! 😀

Statement from the Mayor of London, Ken Livingston:

I am proud to announce that following a successful bid, London has won the right to host the Grand Depart of the Tour de France in July 2007.

The first part of the legendary French cycle race will visit London as part of our efforts to excite people in London about cycling and to promote the capital both to visitors and as a venue for international sporting events.

  1. How will they cross the channel? Oooh! I know! Ride along on punts, and have punt races with punt tactics and punt ITTs, and when punts get pissed off that they are getting boxed in during sprint, elbow the other bastardly punts.

  2. I encountered a rift in the space time continuum on Blythe St today. Thought it wise to stop in the shade and wait for the HR to slow down.
