Where have I been you ask?

July 31, 2008 · Filed Under General 

Well the Tour is over, I now find myself kicking around the house with nothing to do. I call it the July fever hangover. July is my time to take up residence on the couch, No Training (It’s winter anyway in Oz).

For the past month I have been in a limited sleep pattern. My day starts early with a long day in the office, home just in time to catch the 6pm (30min) highlights package. Of course I have already watched the in-depth interviews and video diaries from a few of the pro’s along with the 4 min long highlights video streams. The Internet does make like easy!

After the 6pm Highlights it’s getting dinner out of the way along with the nightly course… I hate doing the dishes! Just sucks.

After that it’s on the web to chase up some info for work and which ever project I’m running around in circles on. At 9:30 or 10pm depending on the stage it’s “Tour Time”. 10pm - 2am, if I make it through the stage, I normally wake up to see the final chat from the presenters, this in turn has me skipping back on the recording to actually catch the last 30 mins of the boys heading into the finish. So 2:30am I stagger off to bed for the same again the next day.

I find it amazing that for someone like me that love his sleep can become the complete opposite and excel on next to know sleep.

I’ll be posting my tour update an an Open letter to Cadel over the next week. There are also some plans to attend the 2009 Tour in person! I still have the FEVER!

    I understand that whole Tour fog… lost in the race. Then for days after you just don’t know what to do. I’ll look for your next post.
