Memories of riding up the Tourmalet...



Hi Steve,
It's a small world.
Having a chat to one of my surgical buddies in the change room this morning, the rather infamous Bill, who is a general surgeon who is an exercise nut, bit like you but about 7 years older.
Anyway, turns out his daughter was in France to see the Tour.
She is a bit like her Dad.
Anyway, they stopped going up the Tourmalet to write a sign on the road, took them an hour, had to direct all the cars around the side of the road so not to smear paint, including three, yes three, police cars.
Guess what the sign said,
'Pain is Weakness Leaving the Body!!!
