Crazy cyclist in the Alps

My blog is updated for anyone interested, first full day in the Alps today, climbed Alpe d'Huez last night and again this morning, this afternoon I went up the Col de la Croix de Fer - it's a bloody long way!

jealous, i will get there one day, more pics would be good!

There'll be plenty, and video - wireless isn't brilliant though so will sort that when I get home. For now, just enough to make people jealous.

you just need this when you have a vid on the climbs !

Red leg warmers?

looks like they match his shoes, handbag etc............

I saw Andy modelling a pair at the Fareham Wheelers Road Race...

Anyway Charlie, why are you looking at my legs and not the scenery?

They're bright red! It's impossible not to see them!

So is the sun burn but you didn't comment on that!

thought that was make up/body paint to match your outfit

hope you.....sorry, KNOW you'll have plenty of stories to tell us on your return, all the best

Fellas,

Just for the record. I wore BLACK knee and arm warmers at Fareham.

To be fair though, I think red is the the official PNE colour for arm and leg accessories.

Kudos for smiling at the camera on what I imagine is some pretty savage climbing!

Pain is temporary, Kudos lasts forever! BTW is it wrong that sitting in the car hurts more than climbing the mountains?

I have been sporting red knee warmers for some time now, it is the way forward!!
