Belgiums

You knew things were going to get a bit 'interesting' this morning when the pass seems full of Belgiums.

First thing, a Belgium falls off his bike. I go help, and miss 15 bikers....sigh. Not even a thank you. Normal.

Then these two muppets come up, two more Belgiums. You could not make this up. One goes down and the other has the opportunity of riding over his downed mate, or going down himself.

Three crashes in one morning and I've had none for a month. Like busses. None turn up for ages and three of them at once.

Then a people carrier comes up, Belgium again, stalls on the corner.

Now the record for someone stalling and then....stalling it again repeatedly is 7. Dutch woman 2 years ago. She was getting very uncomfortable with the photographer watching her trying to not fall on the floor in fits of laughter.

But this guy sat on the corner, and I counted for everyone around, how many times he stalled it. The driver couldn't see me, but his kids were relaying the score to him though. They looked at me, and then whispered something in his ear each time.

He stalled it no less than 16 times. In the end, a group of lads got out of their car and pushed him up the pass.

16. Who knew a car battery could take such a beating!
