Hopefully the riders won't have enjoyed today's excellent hospitality in Clermont-Ferrand, home of the Michelin brothers, founders of Michelin Tyres as well their name being given to the star system for posh restaurants. I'd much rather have the local potée, reminiscent of Betty's 'otpots in t' Rovers, to inflate my spare tyres.
Learning from last year's missed opportunity at Legoland, the TdF organisers are starting tomorrow's 167.5km stage at a theme park - Vulcania. It's a kind of lumpy ride all the way to Issoire, which seems to be pretty boring, except that tomorrow's temperature is forecast to be 38C, and along with the expected heavy thundery showers it might produce a few accidents on the 25km mainly downhill stretch to the finish.
