Since Contador’s Tour de France victory is assured, this will create an unholy alliance of two of Spain’s best-known athletes.

As a popularity Internet indexing of Spaniards shows (right), the Alonso/Contador bloc is in the top 20 already. And while Pau may be trailing at numero 25, you can imagine how I feel about barely eking out superiority over a coach and a sculptor!

That means that my work has been chiseled out for me. It will be no easy task to wrest the title of Spain’s best-beloved sportsman away from Contador's odious axis of excellence. So I need to get out and glad-hand the fanbase!

I am not there at the present. In fact, as I run, I have found that I seem to be missing a lung. (Please inform me if you find it.)
