But what about Training you ask!

February 19, 2008 · Filed Under Uncategorized · Comment

So I hear you ask, “where are the training Stats?” well to be honest, after the trip to Melbourne the return on the Aluminium Tube where I was a caged rat breathing in recycled compressed air supplied by none other than a Boeing jet engine. I have come down with a thing, “A thing you might question?” Well at this stage a touch of the flu, hence I’ve pulled up stumps on all training until things return to normal, as this stage I’m tipping Friday will be time to launch back into it.

I must admit a few days off the bike and the legs are looking forward to getting back on the bike. Heading into the office up the multitude of stairs I have to take, I’m feeling bloody good.

Cadel watch Part 5

February 19, 2008 · Filed Under Cadel Watch 08 · Comment

Cadel Evans is up and running for the year. He has taken out the 2nd stage in the Vuelta a Andalucía tough day in the saddle after torrential rain and bad weather throughout both the first two days in the race. Looks like Cadel is happy with his pre-season training and managed to pay back his team mates who worked for him in today’s stage.

Cadel now sits in 3rd 2.23mins behind Clément Lhotellerie (Fra) from team Skil-Shimano and Pablo Garcia (Spa) of team Caisse d’Epargne. With only 3 stages left in the five day event it’ll be interesting to see how the race pans out for Cadel.

On the U.S front the AMGEN’S 2008 TOUR OF CALIFORNIA

TOC Is looking good for team CSC now that they have Juan Jose Haedo (CSC) took today’s stage. I have to give the Tour of California’s website a huge wrap, it’s great to be able to watch the videos streams of the days stages. Cancellara is still in the lead, Looks like Karl Menzies had a tough day in the office and finish off the lead group.
