Peter Land: Day two

Riding with Will Carling, Mark Bright, Lee Dixon, Jeff Thomas and the Brewin team. This morning was a very tough session particularly with my front brake falling off, but doing well, only 40km left for today!

Beginning to notice some differences between England and France… Yesterday cycling through London a lady yelled at me ‘get out the way, I have got to go to work’… whereas the French are cheering us all the way. I think Londoners may need an injection of the French spirit and va va voom.

Secondly the hills!…. English ones were short and sharp, unlike the French hills that seem to be going on forever and ever – it is really taking the stuffing out of me!
