Hey guys! Thought I would drop
a note on what I have been up to. While the weather in Catalunya has been rather
unpleasant, that has not stopped me from getting lots of K’s in. I have been at home most of the
time, nestled in the Pyrénées mountains, riding climb after climb.
There are so many incredible roads here, it feels just like mountain biking
on great single-track. The roads wind all over the mountains and seem like they
were built for cars. Even my girlfriend Stephanie who has been following me in
the car with food, water, and a big smile cannot believe these roads! Well, whatever
they were made for, I sure have spent my fair share of blood, sweat, and tears
preparing for July.
I hate to be another person writing about how great
they feel…But,
I just have to say I feel good. That’s all I am going to say. I feel good.
So what’s next? Two races before the big
one in July! GP Corrieos in Portugal starts tomorrow and then the Route du Sud
in France. Both are good races with lots of climbing and I am very excited to
see how I am riding.
While I have your attention, check out this video
Stephanie made of my home away from home in Spain. It’s a compilation of
the last two weeks of my training and some cool things the area I live in has
to offer. Enjoy!
Tom
