Lancespotting part 2
Absolutely the last post on this theme, for obvious 'sad b******' accusations.
Anyway, as i thought would happen bumped into Lance earlier today on Els Angels. Well, i was decending to Madremanya and he was heading up, putting in a fair amount of effort and pedalling a very high cadence. He was actually on the wrong side of the road and so moved out the way as i was descending, and then gave me a wave! Great stuff that, you're lucky to get a nod of most punters these days, especially from 3rd division pros, and then the six-time TdF winner, in the middle of Tour prep and a hard hill effort, lifts his hand off the bar to give you a wave. I'll buy him a beer next time in town.
Looking back, its been a quick 2/3 years since the 'bundy' Lanarkshire chain-gang were laughing at me for having hairy legs.
