Second stage win for Milano, the Ciclamino Monster today. Peleton never allowed the breakaway much of a gap - half of the Visma Leaseabike team in the break - and Ineos steered them through a messy approach to the finish.

People still speculating about Pogi being a bit off as he coughed in the post-race interview and his nose looked a bit red...

A Channel 4 documentary about Joe Pasquale's son Joe Tracini who has borderline personality disorder - Voice in My Head. Terribly sad at times it was incredibly well done. I knew nothing about this condition before, but it shows the effects these illnesses can completely take over a life as it follows Joe through his day-to-day life. Really, just watch it.

About a minute... Thought I was going to get caught with that last letter but made a lucky choice...

A minute or so.

Showers were forecast for the afternoon at about 1600 but I was keen to add some distance to the May tally, so I resolved to tolerate it. Last time I did that, instead of the light shower I expected, I got rained on for half an hour. This time, I didn't get rained on at all! The sky went ominously dark grey for half an hour at about 1630, but it didn't follow through on its threat.

A bit windy, not quite so warm as of late. I did a Twycrosser, with the added twist that I went east to Kirkby Mallory after Cadeby, to take in the last 12 miles of the return leg of the southbound route.



Back on 41.86. 318 this month now which is more than good enough for half way through May.

Somebody's put last night's Birmingham show on Youtube.


Some of my mates were there and they said Mariusz's vocals were quite low in the mix and they sound like it on this, yet they were fine on the other side of the stage.
