    As I was perusing the Indo today a supplement on Bike Week fell out into my lap. (NB: It was the office copy of the Indo, lest you make any assumptions about my paper buying habits!)

    Fairly light content, but then again it's for Bike Week, which is all about good news/promo etc.

    Anyway, I thought the article on Sean Kelly might be of interest on here- it's a potted history of his career with a few words from the man himself and what I think you'll agree is one of the more flattering photos ever taken of him. It says he was born in 1956, but honestly- he doesn't look a day over 50! :P

    A very handsome fella. But I never knew when out on a boards spin that I was in such exalted company.
    LOL.

    I hope someone's texted Emty to tell him he's famous.
