Team update: Greg R - rider, team 2

As I write this, just over one week before we set off, there is one member of the team who has yet to get on a bike. As we've seen before, Greg is scared of his bike. However, he is preparing; we suspect that he's buying up most of Western Europe's supply of Ginsters pasties for the trip.

When asked how he came to be involved, he came up with the following answer:
"Ten years ago in 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire...."
Clearly Greg watches a little too much television.

The question is, to what use will he put those pasties? Seat cushioning, perhaps?
