Well I have to say today has been a good day .........
Raducanu . Somerset .... AND BEST of all Mark Cavendish getting that win after so much heartache.
Le Tour an annual feast featuring the beauty of France/ ALPS / Pyrennees and sheer grit and determination.
Been watching the race for best part of 25 years, going on Holidays for a month around most of the routes, my bucket list along with the routes was do all the high road passes in the Alps and pyrenees over 2000m and make it to over 50 passes above 1700m stopped on around 70 by 2011 some passes are amazing up and down over 30-50 hairpins. Favourite has to be Stelvio.
Really got interested in and around 2008 with Mark Cavendish winning a couple, then next year WON 5 or 6 and was a sprinter supreme. SINCE 2021 when he equalled the great Eddie MERCKS 34 wins he has had a struggle to beat injuries ..had a serious one kept him for a year? How many stages could he have won since 2012 onwards when he seemed to always been crashing /or involved in one! rarely if ever his error!
1 MORE VICTORY WILL do him proud be 2 ahead of the record that has lasted for over half a century?
so we Cricket /Tennis/ Cycling and football to take our minds of the calamity that is about to unfold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
