FW Training Update Week 3


Another week gone by and a further 300 miles under the wheels and in the legs, time on the bike 17hrs 31mins & 48secs, with 7428ft of climbing. FW is just 3 and a bit weeks away, and the nervous excitement (tension) is building!

The 7000 mile barrier has now been broken and if possible I would like to be on 8000 by the time the Fred is done. (or even before?)

2 uncharacteristically sunny days have seen the posh bike emerge from a premature hibernation, rain is now forecast for a couple of days but a promise of more sun to come, towards the weekend so I guess short term pain, long term gain?

TDF still bodes well for a Brit winner and even a Brit 1-2, just need to get the two Pyranean days over with and Team Sky have to manage the attacks that are sure to come.

Imagine Brad in yellow and then Cav winning on the Champs? - perfect!!!!
