Here we go , we arrived at Porcaro looking well hard ,well perhaps not, just knackered after so little sleep but definitely very cool in our club shirts. So here we are along with 20,000 other bikers.
We couldn't believe it, most of them seemed to want to get blessed by the church fellows. It really was a sight to see. The way it works is this... if you want to get blessed which is a kind of good luck church charm thing then you gets in the que along with what seemed like all 20,000 other bikes and shuffle forward, very slowly on sweaty noisy plastic missiles, to the end.
Then the Priest/church fella flicks water at you and all of your riding sins are forgiven and you gets good karma type church /god stuff and away you go.
GREAT as we was not French and being very English we stood around the edge just in case a bit of the water landed on us and some of the magic washed off, for just as long as it took to take a pic or two.
Then off again into the crowds, looking cool as you like in our shirts...
