Well, here are the first of the new shots and I start with the female officials.
The first girl is an Italian girl who was studying english at one of the language schools in Brighton. She was roped in to be a steward, but at the briefing she thought she could not control other cyclists (from a safety angle) as she was not confident at shouting out orders in english!! So, she volunteered to help with the stall that sold flags and publicity material at the assembly point. Thankfully for the many guys with cameras, se decided very early (about 90 minutes before the start) to do this job fully naked. In between she got painted too. She was VERY happy to pose for the camera, so features quite a lot in photos, I like the rear shot though, the best.
We also have the paramedic, she has popped up a lot more recently and I have more to come of her later.
