Tour de Britain! Ikr? The name itself just emitts sheer elequence and high-brow prowess right? Oh just me then...
Well yeah! It wasn't bad in all due respect, about 60 racers or so started another leg of their mamoth trip around Britain in Minehead this morning, and where should there ending be? Yes! 110 miles 'down the road' in good ol' Teignmouth. we can now hardly call our sleeply little town, and sleepy little town anymore, what with MUSE rocking the place and now this too. Country folks no more me thinks (said in Somerset accent).
Well yeah, so the bike race was one! The counter clock was ticking as we all waited eagerly at the ending line. Hundreds of us lined the causeways of blocked off roads and hazard taped streets, waiting and playing up to the anouncer's broadcast. THEN! just over 4 hours after they started the winner arrived! ...I forget his name...but he was Iranian i know! Good on him; with all the weather and stuff, loads of people falling off along the way (i'm told) he wasn't used to it by any means!
After the first 12 or so riders had completed, there was a long ppaauussee as such and a 20 odd minute wait, before a HUGE wave of them came, like 30 something D: ...and then it was over. And we went home. End of story.
The rest of the day was average and shizz, erm...yeah, just mega-tonnes of works like to do atm...
Until next time people! x
