  1. I happened across the Tall Bike Tour of Britain today
    at the Cutty Sark in Greenwich

    Best of luck to them - but how do they stop at traffic lights?
    My guess is you always go in pairs and grab onto your mate.

    They arrived here in Ramsgate at about 8.30 last night. Fed and watered,
    this morning we cycled out to Deal with my youngest and had ice cream at the
    Beach Parlour there (which they seemed reluctant to leave!) before bidding
    them farewell and good luck. They'll have a tailwind across Romney Marsh
    today -- I think their destination is somewhere near Hastings...

    Look forward to seeing them in London in August (if not before if I meet
    them on on my bike travels).

    Hmm. Yes. The idea was to make the account more readable...

    They were telling me that Carradice gave tem all the luggage for free. Very
    nice of them -- there's lots of it; Ed's bike fully-loaded weighs about
    85kg. I tried lifting it and only just managed!
