Well, I must say I’m happy with the training so far and feel ready ( or as ready as I can get ) for the Tour. I’ve exceeded the recommended 2,000 km of training and got some long rides in last weekend, the only unknown is the Tour itself, day in- day out of ridding long distances without the luxury of resting when I want to (need to !!! ), but I’m looking forward to the challenge, only three more weeks now!!!! 
Thanks to Andy, Bob and Jeff for your comments and encouragement .

Andy, like you I’m also starting to get a bit nervous, looking forward to meeting you!!

Bob , I wish you were coming with me !!!

Jeff, well done last weekend !!!!, Saturday sure was a tough day with that head wind !!!, and doing the 160 was quite an accomplishment for you guys on those bikes!!!, you’ll find it much easier next year on a lighter bike !!!

  1. Hi David, I wish I was coming along too, but that is one of the drawbacks of having your own business and people relying on you. I will just have to enjoy it through reading your blogs this time. Congratulations on achieving your 2000KM goal! Will talk to you soon, Bob

    Keep on Smiling!
