Since I moved to suburbia it’s safe to say there has been a clear drop off in location related excitement.
Whilst it is a big relief not to have shootings on my street and terrorist raids on the local estate I do miss the occasional festivities in Victoria Park.
So it’s no lie when I say I’m giddy as a schoolboy about the Tour de France coming through my neck of the woods on Sunday. Stage 1 goes right past my street!
Personally I haven’t been brave enough to take my trek 100 road bike up Bostall Hill yet but I may try tomorrow (just for a giggle and whilst the road is shut making it semi-safe).
Hopefully I’ll have some pictures for the blog on Sunday, if it’s not raining to heavily.
