    It is good to read an article that rings a lot truer than the standard write
    ups.

    I just hope that Nicole comes high up the list in tomorrows BBC's charade (I
    hope to vote twice once mobile, once landline --- I am sure lots of other
    supporters of all the candidates are doing the same thing) -- but above
    all I hope that she maintains her simply expressed devotion to her cycling.

    And since I am in my "dotage" and keep pedalling gently on ( at about a 1/4
    of her 400 miles a week rate) I wish her so much "good luck" in the future.

    What a refreshingly delightful young lady and a huge asset to the cycling
    community. Let's hope that when the inevitable mud slinging starts ( as it
    always does in the tabloid press) her reputation overcomes that dirt. I am
    sure it will.

    But the road ( and I mean life's road) is hard enough without being a public
    figure and it is immensely difficult to stay on the narrow track.

    I sincerely wish her good fortune in cycling and continued strength of will
    to survive life's knocks.

    Does this mean that different members of a family can't use the same phone?

    I would expect so -- otherwise, shirley, the voting system is wide open to
    fraud !

    The beeb is most unlikely to care much who wins.

    But they care a lot about their own popularity. The more votes they
    get - in total for all candidates - the happier they'll be.

    Not that you'd catch me voting in this kind of thing. Not even once.

    If it's anything like normal TV votes - you can vote as many times as you
    like.
