It is now Stage 13 of the Tour de France, and Le Bon David and The VeloDrone are again walking their bicycles up a hill. Today it is the Col d'Aubisque, somewhere on the way to Lourdes.
The VeloDrone: These hills! I shall be glad to get to Lourdes.
Le Bon David: Me too.
The VeloDrone: Ah, Lourdes, the home of miracles. How was it that you used to describe a miracle, David?
Le Bon David: A violation of the laws of nature.
The VeloDrone: Yes, yes, that was it. I wonder what young Sweezus thinks of miracles. We should ask him.
Just then Sweezus appeared behind them, although this was not a miracle. He had made a comfort stop, and was now catching up.
Sweezus: Hi guys? Walking? How come?
The VeloDrone: We may walk all the way to Lourdes. We're quite knackered. Strangely, we were just talking about you.
Le Bon David: Yes, we were wondering about your thoughts on miracles.
Sweezus: Miracles? You're asking the wrong guy. I never paid attention in Religious Ed. That was when I used to catch up on my homework.
Le Bon David: But surely....aren't you supposed to have done a few yourself?
Sweezus; Am I? Don't think so. But if you want to hear a real miracle I have one for you.
The VeloDrone: What?
Sweezus: Team Bumptious are leading the breakaway. They're riding like the clappers. God knows why.
