Any of you semi-addicted to the Tour, like me? I watch for the brilliant scenery, glimpses of railways (plenty of them, but never seen a TRAIN!) and a bit for the race itself.
Anyway, today, Bastille Day, a Brit, a Welshman, to be precise, and so a CELT, won the Stage!
But, but, but, just behind him, having torn the race apart earlier was a very brave Irishman Ben Healy, who now leads the Tour and wears the fabled Yellow Jersey!
Only the fourth Irishman in history to have ever worn the famous jersey, so well-done Ben!
So, while Enda races cars up hills, Ben CYCLES up them ......
I should whisper, for rivet counters among you, that although Ben was born in Birmingham, in his youth, he chose to compete for Ireland
