jackiepoppies Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 The tour de france is coming straight through our village on the 25th The local council for the commune have resurfaced all the roads in their honour. [Can't have them falling off and hurting themselves here...not good for the image ]If you look closely I'll wave to you all as they go through Jackiex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I know, he's incredible isn't he . I thought he was a bit cocky to begin with, but now I think he's entitled to be . Lucky you, Jackie . We saw the Tour a couple of years ago and it was quite a spectacle . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fur 'n' Feathers Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 If you look closely I'll wave to you all as they go through We will certainly look out for you waving, but what will it be so we can identify you By the way, the TV schedule has changed to 5 hours live on 23rd from Noon till 5pm on ITV4. They're really giving good coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then we will surely know who you are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I suggest a chicken on each shoulder - surely they'd do a closeup of you then . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Jackie - don't you have an Omlet t-shirt you could wear?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 We'll be waving Jackie! The coverage is changed for just the one day isn't it? - for the Alpe d'Huez? Brilliant coverage tonight - I didn't think Cav was going to do it for a fourth time - he was blocked in until the last few seconds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackiepoppies Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Nooo...I haven't got an Omlet Tshirt,my wardrobe is sadly lacking Jackiex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Nooo...I haven't got an Omlet Tshirt,my wardrobe is sadly lacking Jackiex Oh no! That is what I was going to suggest However the run cover is a fantastic idea It amazes me that they can ride for over four hours and still manage a sprint at the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 It amazes me that they can ride for over four hours and still manage a sprint at the end Of course, that's just what I'll be doing next week in Italy . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tina C Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Don't forget you need lots of cake ANH. Allez! Allez! Not sure that its cake that is fuelling Cav though...but I hope it is I am a huge cycling/Tour fan but events over the past few years have left me despondent. But I hope Cav gets over the mountains and gets another win in Paris. Have spectated on Alpe D'huez and Galibier in the past (as well as Ireland and England!) and they are my favourite stages. Won't be able to watch it 'live' this year but will try and catch the highlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
