see the Tour de France live

it's over very quickly 3 years ago

I’ve seen the tour live a few times now, each time in Paris. It’s fun, but you stand there in a big crowd for hours, watching un-clever advertising cars drive past and, then, after ages, suddenly there are the riders. Everybody starts pushing each other and tries to take a photo as this whoosh of colour goes by. And that’s it. Then you go home. It might be more fun on the alp d’huez.

swim in the ocean all year round

on hold 3 years ago

not much chance of this since I moved from the beach in Sydney to Strasbourg, which is 100s of km from a decent beach. Damn!
