My son tried to get over to watch the tour but crashed heavily a few months earlier. He broke his collar bone - a normal thing for cyclists. He missed going over due to surgery and recovery.

He had planned to watch the tour and then catch up with Cadel at his home during recovery. As Cadel won the tour it became apparent to us all that Cadel was going to be rushed straight off to interviews, meetings and speaking engagements. So my son whilst not happy missing out on catching up realized that Cadel would have been to busy.

Yes we will be cheering for him again this 2012 Tour. My son may even get over this year..

I had the GT40 out at a recent car show and I think the biggest issue we have is the amount of people who lean all over our cars for photos. I even had one climb in for a photo as I had left the drivers door open.

No damage done and nothing stolen on the day - which was good. But I do stay pretty close to the car.

The only thing that I am a little concerned with, is items being dropped in the trumpets onto the butterflies. I added wire strainers to stop this...
