Back from holidays for a week and a half now and back into it. Still have a pesky kennel cough that I picked up on the plane home and can’t shake – but generally into it.
Good trip - will stick to my previous advice to anyone who rides a bike. Don’t die without doing the French Alpes.
4 bucket list ticks:
Ø Ventoux – tick
Ø Took RJ to Disneyland before he is 10.(Made it by a month)
Ø Paddled under the Pont du Gard
Ø Saw Guernica
Would have been 5, but rained out and temps dropped below freezing the day I has scheduled for Galibier. Next time.
Stated training again now:
