Sipping coffee, snacking occasional fruit, listening to music. Rest days are for good.
Training has been pretty decent. I've
got plenty of good hours into my legs during the preparation phase,
now one more week of this and then a sort of recovery week. After
that I'll start training really. So far it has been mainly
unstructured riding and getting ready for proper structured workouts,
but now we are getting closer to the beginning of the real training
season. Other than that, the weather has been very much favourable
lately.
All racing is still far far away, but
all in all the main idea is to train a lot, race a lot and have two
peaks during the season. The two peaks have not been decided, neither
discussed yet, but they will wrap around time trialling and
pursuiting, as if everything goes as planned. I'm hoping to be able
to race the weekend stage races in Sweden pretty much as they're
pretty good trainingwise. But that's about racing then, it is still
simply too far in the horizon to talk about.
Off the track completely, it has been
superb to follow alpine results during past weeks. Guys are doing
just great: 1st, 4th and 5th Europa Cup giant
slalom, what do you make of that? Romar 16th in Lake
Louise DH world cup opener? Räsä started well placing 6th
in North American Cup opener? That is one hell of a start, keep it
up!
It is all good!
