Mods rule Tour de France

Yes - it was only a matter of time.

The Yellow Jersey is currently worn by a mad keen mod, Brad Wiggins - who has a collection of scooters and 60's guitars etc. :riding: :riding: :riding: :riding: :riding:

Amusing article in Le monde today:
http://contre-pied.blog.lemonde.fr/2012 ... icone-mod/

Rough translate of last sentence...
"Win the Tour, for Britain, it would also be an aesthetic triumph. And on the Champs-Elysées, it would probably play "Mod Save the Queen".

C'mon Wiggo - win it for all us Mods!! :-D

Cheers
Stormin'
