Mmmmm… 2 days after the race today. I feel remarkably good. Some little pains left, but non really worth mentioning. Well, maybe only the painful shoulders… the cold really got to me there.
Luckily being unemployed really pays off these days after the race! *hahaha* it was just briljant to just take a little nap this afternoon. Felt reborn after having closed my eyes for a little hour! :-)
Today it also became clear we were chokingly underdressed… the man from my bicycle shop also did the race and wore 4 (!!!) shirts! A long sleeve undershirt, a long sleeve bike shirt, a long sleeve wind breaker and a raincoat! We wore 2 shirts… a sleeveless undershirt and the T-Mobile short sleeve bike shirt… He was warm, we were freezing… it seems we still have quite a lot to win in our preparation! :-)
Although next time I don’t think I will start if it’s raining… I ride my bike for fun, and riding in the rain ain’t that much fun… Although it did make quite an heroic story… Can’t wait to go cycling in the south of France! That must be just briljant! Cycling how cycling was meant to be. Under a sunny sky with a lovely 25 degrees! Doesn’t that sound nice?
