Finally getting on track... just about

Finally getting on track... just about

It feels like it’s been a long winter but finally it’s nearly time to climb into my leathers and swing my leg over the race bike again... I can’t wait.

I’m sat here typing this in the Cartagena Circuit Restaurant waiting for the Van to finish its 1500+mile trek from Yorkshire to southern Spain.

I got here yesterday evening and flew into Murcia. A warm welcome maybe but it was hammering done with rain.

Nearly started the trip with a bit of good old fashioned stalking as according to twitter 7-times Tour De France Winner Lance Armstrong landed at the same time and his “Radio Shack” team car was outside the airport doors. If it wasn’t for the rain I’d have given him a pester!
Aquaplaning the hire car [including bow wave] a few times on the way to the hotel wasn’t quite what I expected but fingers crossed the weather will be on our side...

Once the van arrives we’ll get the pit set up and bike prep’d for tomorrow – the sun is out now & hopefully it stays with us for the following 4 days when we’re on track!

I’ll keep the blog updated and you can also follow what’s happening on twitter...
