will the real eddy merckx please turn up

Pic: D McCulloch


I've always been a dreamer. It was the most consistent remark on all my school report cards the entire way through. 'Head in the clouds'. I follow my dreams, sometimes with the same blind enthusiasm as a dog chasing a car. You'd say a dog could never catch the car, and you probably would have said John Van Sommeren would never win Roubaix.

You just have to dream big.

Usually, it's my job to deliver things. This next dream is so big that I'm going to need your help to pull it off. Get this message to its destination!
