Well its started! The one and only African contender has already taken a wrong turning. It also begs the question as to why Africans don't cycle - but then we said the same about Motor Racing. Something tells me he's not about to become the Lewis Hamilton of cycling.  |

Probably because they can run faster than we can cycle. Especially if they have a lion up their arse. Or it could be because they can't only get bikes imported from Liverpool. (see earlier)  |

Another interesting new design....thee Hamster Wheel.  Slightly flawed by poor steering and the lack of brakes. |
