andy schleck

Andy Schleck had a cameo in my dream last night. He was wearing a red and black skinsuit made of wool - toasty. Possibly hand knit, but definitely red and black. I think I was starting a new job and he was there on the sofa! Bit part

I was an editor/ press officer for a website and was due to help Matt Rendell interview Cav for ITV4. Went to toilet beforehand and it was a state… Long story but I got p!$$ and sh!£ all over myself. Went to get changed and my bag and bike had been stolen from team car outside! Car all gutted and burnt, an empty shell in the middle of a square.

In my dream I was walking down the street and Dani King rode past on a training ride. I had to stop and point out to my brother - ‘Look, there’s Dani King.’

@HansenAdam nightmares after I saw that movie linked to your bday story. Dreamed you chased me on the bike while I was swimming on the road!

I once had a dream that Indurain taught at my school in London. He also featured in a 1979 style Grange Hill comic intro. Can’t remember much except he wore a green polo neck jumper and Mrs Bell (French teacher) fancied him. Oh, and he smoked.

Last night it was about going to a bike race, then getting hit by a pro on a bike… It was Phil Gaimon, I believe. I ended up with a broken leg, somehow. I was spectating. In the dream he bunnyhopped the fan barrier and then chased me down on his bike. It was terrifying but I found myself laughing about it in the shower this morning when I realised what I had dreamt.

matt seaton / michael hutchinson

I was sitting with cycling writers Matt Seaton and Michael Hutchinson in a cafe, having a good giggle at a piece in Cycling Weekly (cycling dos and don’ts of some kind, I think). Then Michael leant over and licked my face - to test me for something, he said. I remember being a bit disappointed ‘cos I’d thought he was going to kiss me. Then he came with me to the dentist’s.

matt brammeier

I was following Matt Brammeier on his bike. Suddenly a massive hedge appeared across the width of the road. He pedalled really hard and launched his bike at the top of the hedge. As he cleared the hedge he said ‘neigh’ and made other horsey noises.
No idea.

“Bus Bouncer”

I dreamed I worked for a pro cycling team. I don’t remember the team’s name, and the only team member I remember was Cancellara (His kit was gray, not RLT black, white and aqua). My job was to ensure privacy for the cyclists on the bus, in particular by preventing overenthusiastic fans from boarding, but I was also supposed to be friendly and welcoming to them. There were always hordes of people pressing against the bus. After I escorted a few fans off the bus, my work day was over. Then the bus driver, several co-workers (admin-types) from the team, and I went to a club where there was live music.

I was at some sort of event with my hubby & Fabian Cancellara was there selling Garmin rugby shirts ( I have no idea why). I really wanted one of these shirts (partly because it was Fabs selling them) but my hubby wouldn’t let me because they were £70. So I kept trying to sneak away from him to find Fabs & buy one of these shirts. The next thing I know I was in a big hotel & I was trying to find Fabs’ room so I could get one of these shirts. I eventually found his room. I knocked on the door, & Fabs answered. He had just a teeny towel wrapped round his waist. He smiled at me & let me in. Next thing I know we were in bed together, I was wearing one of the Garmin rugby shirts & not a lot else. Then my alarm went off & I woke up :-(
