Yesterday was very exciting because I was at Box Hill
with the Costa Rican cyclist, his coach and the driver. The teams were allowed
to practice for 90 minutes during which the ascent and descent were closed to
ordinary traffic. Obviously since cycle fever is now gripping the UK there were
lots of spectators about and the British team had a motor cycle escort. I sat
in the sun and watched all the practice and saw Bradley Wiggins in is yellow
helmet. Also saw teams from Spain, Germany, Denmark, Colombia and lots of others.

Hoping to get back to Barns Green tonight to see the Opening Ceremony on the big screen in the Village Hall and then back for the Cycle Race on Saturday
