It has been relatively frustrating two
weeks since the accident in Turku. Not only the accident, but also my
missing of the Scandinavian race tour. Admittedly I was on tour in
Denmark as a team manager and jack-of-all-trades-guy. After I managed
to get through my responsibilities of managing our great team and,
most of all, driving with the convoy, I can only respect of the
professionals – riders and staff. It was one hell of a job. Either
way, we had numerous punctures and some crashes, which meant some
work in the car.
I believe our team had a good trip to Denmark. Guys got loads of quality kilometers in big bunch
and we had several guys finishing the races (which was target number
one). Next year, we shall be stronger and fight more for the
positions – ain't that right guys?
This week I've got back on my bike
slowly, actually really slowly without slightest exaggeration.
Believe it or not, one can ride bike or even Wattbike without the
problem of sweating. It only takes some tricks and adjustments.
Here is a list of few:
-Accurately positioned fans
-Shorts without suspenders
-Perfectly cut base layer
-Couple feet of sports tape
-Bunch of Tena Ladies
Despite all, I haven't actually managed
to do anything I would count as training. I'd perhaps call it riding
bikes. Other than that, I have replanned the season, cleaned my room
and other productive stuff (well, more or less). Actually more so, if
I leave the hours spent browsing Ebay or other web store aside.
The stitches are to be cut off next
week and I can get back to the real stuff. In fact, it is all good.
