Win or lose....
I want to thank everybody that has already voted in the writing competition. We were 155 votes behind the leader a fortnight ago. Now it is down to 60. If there are any more votes out there....?????
Could I just mention that I will have a webpage up and running,hopefully within the next three weeks (ericonhisbike.com),on which I hope to bore all and sundry with details of my training trips and,hopefully,updates on news from Thamsanqa.
I have been most fortunate this week in that I have had an interview with Costa Blanca News (to be followed by an article in the paper) and a radio interview with Hit FM. They will serve to generate interest,I hope,in the Tour and consequently Thamsanqa. On Thursday,I am invited to a Ladies' Luncheon to speak about Thamsanqa.And really,I just want to go out on my bike!
I shall be doing the Tour whether or not I win the writing contest; but winning might stop me from having to sell my RBS shares!
Best wishes,
Eric.

07 Mar 2009 at 13:57 Remember your sea time when one has to have everything as one cannot go the shop. so you will want gin and tonic to make you feel good, brandy in case you fall off and whisky to give you energy. It might be best to pull a trailer so that all this extra gear can be taken safely. Happy Days.....MMum wrote:
