Route du Sud, Day 1
Hi there,
Day 1 done and a real day of French racing it was. Up n down all day enough attacks for a grand tour in one day, though ending in a sprint.
I had very little part to play in any of that, as I quietly rolled through the stage near the back of the pelo.
It’s the best place to when your in the ‘reprise’ as the French say, or comeback. Out of trouble and getting in the miles you came for.
So not a lot to report on, though one of our boys did manage to run 2nd in the kick which was good to see.
Tomorrow we have a real Tour of Southland style day, with a double stage 80km in the morning and a 16km uphill TT in the arvo. Don’t expect any fire works from here though, It’s just good old engine building I’m here for and that’s it.
Ok well I have an early start either way so time to go.
Thanks for reading,
Tim
Well done Tim,
Hang in there .. and stay upright6.
