ike said he was "livid" after receiving a phone call on Sunday
morning, explaining the nurses had been halted by road closures
implemented for the race.
"We took a call from one of the Macmillan nurses saying they'd been
stopped by race marshals near Dorchester," he explained.
"They were meant to be here at 9.45am, but finally arrived after
12.30pm. "One of the nurses was almost in tears when she got here -
they both said they'd be reporting the incident to their boss."
Mr Lathwell, 77, said the nurses work hard to make Patricia, who has
terminal ovarian cancer, as comfortable as they can at home.

"When the nurses were finally able to get here, one of them explained
they'd been told they could go through, but they were sitting in their
car and there was about forty cyclists coming towards them en-masse.
What could they do?
"They were waiting there and there was no escort available."

Macmillian nurses are magnificent, as I unfortunately found out.
Cyclists are self righteous filth.


How do you feel about the runnists and swimmists who also took part?
