Road Tripping
Here is a quick recap of the past couple of days of my life. The final stage of Poland was spent riding the front of the peloton in hopes of setting up a field sprint for Andre. Through the mountains, blowing winds, constant attacks and wet conditions, we managed to bring the race together in the closing kilometers and Andre did what he does best and won the sprint. It was a hard fought victory and a tough way to end a weeklong stage race.
A short night of sleep followed and I was soon in the Krakow airport before 5:30AM heading back to Spain. Two flights and a long taxi ride later I was finally home in Girona just in time for a great lunch on the patio with Courtney. We spent the rest of the afternoon catching up at one of the many sidewalk cafes in town. A solid night’s sleep in my own bed and the new day brought even more adventure.
An easy spin, to loosen up my sore and tired legs, around town with my agent, Andrew, and then back home to try to enjoy each passing moment with Courtney as I was heading back to the Barcelona airport that afternoon. This time, the plane is bound for Lyon, France as the five-stage Tour l’Ain begins tomorrow with a 3-kilometer prologue. As you can see, the life of a professional cyclist can be hectic at times. You just have to roll with it and take each moment as it comes.
