Well, did our man Guy make it? He mentioned plenty-a-times that he was worried about getting pulled out by the broom wagon, but hopefully he made it!
Place your bets, because in a few days I'm sure we'll all be hearing about it! _________________ http://fusion-media.co.uk

IF he finished in the back group (highly unlike for a star rider like Guy) then he would have finished only 1 hour ago, I'm sure we'll know soon enough. _________________ Going out the back in style since 2002. |

I've been looking after De Rosa's gorgeous missus while he's been poncing about in France. |

So he didn't do the ephedrine as I suggested. He must have done Prozac instead. What about Brian? He's also important. He represents the cream of RRing in this country. _________________ 't Ros Beijaart.

I'll tell you what Bob, Guy did something that we might only dream about at the age of 16. Jeez it beggars belief. He was so brave. _________________ 't Ros Beijaart.
