Another very cold stage in Paris-Nice. -2 degrees and some snowflakes. Another Skil rider in the break though. Tomorrow I'll try again!
Oh and I forgot
@kaitibell hasn't had water all that time either. She has to warm up snow on the bbq for water...
Thanks for the worried msgs about
@kaitibell She has had no power, heating or fresh food since monday but she is still happy, what a woman!
This sucks! RT
@kaitibell: No power, water, food since monday!! Still a lot of snow and frozen roads.... Sucks! Phone off again 2 save batt.
@TRDean1 Thanks and you are right. There is no problem with sore legs today, I survived comfortably and have more chances to come this race!
Myth confirmed: when you are 180km in a breakaway, you have very sore legs the next day!
Apparently we won't start here but we will go in convoy the first 50km by car. We should be able to start there.
Getting ready to sleep. Enjoyed being in the break today, hope I'll be able to show myself again in the next few days.
At dinner in Limoges now. Had a tough day with 4 guys off the front, felt pretty good but unfortunately Mangel took the mountainjersey...
Very upset I missed the first echelon, just managed to somehow get boxed in. Legs were definitely good... Ah well, tomorrow another day.
Snowing in Palamós now.
@kaitibell has never seen it snow before, you won't believe how excited she is! No snow in PN but very cold!
@lieseltim cool, you are using twitter as well now! Hope you guys are okay!
@CarloVerzeletti I wasn't driving but definitely helped by pulling on the handbrake in the corners. Director wasn't overly happy tho...
@gleejb Thanks! Hope we can give you a nice show here ;-)
TT done, didn't feel good on this bike, will need more training on it. This wasn't the focus for this race anyway, starts tomorrow!
Checked out the prologue course yesterday. Now getting ready for an hour long ride then getting ready for the TT this afternoon.
Almost at the first hotel for Paris-Nice. That turned out to be a long travel. Looking forward to a ride on my TT bike.
@wimijpelaar Doe zeker voorzichtig hoor, ze is nog steeds erg moe en veel last van de jetlag maar ben blij dat ze er weer is!
@TOURNEWS2010 heel slecht inderdaad, gelukkig maar 1 dagje geweest maar was ook wel verschrikkelijk gisteren. Surfen zou leuk zijn..
