Andy on Tour

Remember a while ago, Schleckland was agog with the news that Our Glorious Leader would be appearing on some Trek-organised riding holidays?

Well, time has passed and the first one took place a few days ago.

Andy tweeted:


I wonder if these holidays normally attract that many women???? *laughs*

It looks as though they had sunshine for their day out together, which is lovely: I can't imagine how annoying it would be to book a cycling holiday with a chance to meet Andy Schleck, and then it rains all day.

Unless there is the option of staying in the hotel lobby, drinking tea and asking penetrating questions:

Andy: *shakes water off head* "So, we stay in the lobby for a short while, until the rain eases. Does anyone have any questions?"

A forest of waving hands rises in front of him. Laughing, he selects one.

Coug: "So, Andy, you chose a very short, three-letter name for your son. How do you feel about journalists who spell it incorrectly?"

Andy looks confused. Coug leans over his shoulder and taps on his tablet:


Andy: "Huh? Will our upcoming wedding survive?"
Coug: "Don't worry, the vote was 100% Yes. Mind you, only three people had voted."
Andy: (looking insulted) "Only three?"
Coug: "Four, after I saw it."

While Andy is thinking about this, Coug leans over again and taps the tablet for a second time.

Coug: "They all copy each other, so if one gets it wrong..."



Andy: (sighs) "Toe.  Jil will go spare..."
