Hot stuff

So, the Tour continues on apace with a rest day today.  Which means it doesn't continue at any pace actually, but you know what I mean.  It's turning out to be quite interesting, especially how Sky managed to get all of their team dropped except Froome yesterday.  I'm sure there's an explanation, but it's a bit odd given Porte's excellent pace the previous day.  Maybe they're human after all and can't managed 2 consecutive 'busy' days.  I struggle with one.
I did, however, manage an 86 miler on Saturday riding home from Buckminster after seeing daughter number 2 compete on her horse.  It was really hot (for the UK) as my red arms testified.
Travelled through some parts of Lincolnshire I had never seen before so quite a pleasant ride despite the sun.  I had to keep going to cool myself down.
