Don’t try taking off your raincoat while riding your bicycle, you might crash. This is not good for your knees, elbows, shoulders and ego.  It also  may make a big hole in your raincoat, which impacts its ablity to stop rain rather profoundly. 

This will not stop the ride up Ventoux on Saturday, it merely gives me a excuse when Sig beats me!

I’m off to Sweden this afternoon to advise on a large  HR shared services project, and then I’m in the UK on Thursday to see a UK Bank about their ERP 2005 upgrade.  Friday we will drive down to France for the ride on Saturday.

I’d like to thank all the folks who have blogged about the ride, Dennis, Davids, James, Jeff, Mark, Charlie and many more,  and especially those that have contributed to the fund for Warchild. 

I may be sounding like a broken record on this, but take out your credit card and click here.
