Horse and cart

At last after six weeks I have finally managed to overtake something. I planned the move strategically, tucking in behind the cart for several minutes I sheltered from an oppressive headwind, then sensing a moment of weakness I made my move on a downhill section and secured a stage victory into the small hamlet of El Blanco. Instead of a podium, models and champagne an old lady in a shop sold me a can of coke and a bar of chocolate.
