More stories from Albi

A relaxing day in Albi today and we are all set for Stage 11 tomorrow, down to Toulouse. Now here’s a thing. My riding partner on the Tour, Richard is from Froome in Somerset. He is a roofer by trade and just good to be around, always positive. He is also a legend if you are a DARTS fan. The Brown family enjoy the televised professional darts that take place over New Year. Well, Richard plays a bit in local darts in Froome and every year one of the celebrity players entertains them and takes on players in a one off 501. Richard beat Michael van Gerwen, two weeks before MVG won his third world title. What a LEGEND.
