Cycle Support's Comments
The second thing that caused me amusement during my RNR cycle support duties occuredon Robbie's penultimate stage. 

As we were approaching a female runner ahead I said to him that he had to concentrate on thinking of a witty comment to make as we passed her.  This was on the basis that I wanted to be able to tell tales about the day (middle of the night actually!) that I supported this runner who was so funny because he said….?  Rob rehearsed some possible one-liners and she got nearer and nearer.  What was comment finally uttered as he passed her – what words that could be held up alongside a Winston Churchill classic?

"MORNING" Rob said… how lame is that!  I laughed so much the lady runner must have wondered what was going on.
