“Would you like some fries with your mashed potatoes?”
Yes, indeed. The routines of food at stage races can be rather hard mentally towards the end of the week. Chicken or beef, 3 differently cooked types of potatoes on the table and over cooked carrots and broccoli. Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3…the same is served. It does start to crack you a bit. We did add a drink to the menu tonight however, Champagne! Dom Rollin went off early on with the right breakaway and rode away from the group of 15 or so in the last few hundred meters and took his second stage victory. “Very nice…”
The pace was fairly steady for us in the pack, and to be honest I was rather happy to be taking somewhat of a break after yesterday’s massacre. My legs hurt, back, neck everything. I woke up in the middle of the night last night to use the bathroom and could hardly walk to the toilet. I was praying it was 2am or still early enough where I wouldn’t awake the day in that sort of state.
It’s 10pm right now and still rather light outside. The scenery up here in Northern Ireland has been spectacular, and with the nicer weather today it was actually a bit enjoyable. We head to New Castle tomorrow on a 160km+ stage, with bad weather expected in the days to come it will be no parade to the finish. Come on legs.
Our bikes and equipment have been holding up supremely under the stress and weather it has been handing over the past week. Randy, our new mechanic has meshed in well with the team and has set up our fleet of Kuota’s equipped with the latest from SRAM with precision. All needed to handle the rough and nasty conditions this race offers.

Fantastic reports... just wish you could double them and deliver in half the time for us slo-pokes to read. We'll settle for quality over quantity.
Best defense is a good offense.

If you disregarded the Ugg guidelines and wore your boots in water, or perhaps you dropped liquid in your boot, you could possibly
have stains along your boots. These forms of Ugg Boots Clearance could be
found in 2 colors from the store at fine sand as well as saying.
In addition, once you seem on the labels for that manufacturing site, you really
should bear in mind how the labels which exhibit "Manufactured in China"
are authentic, and several others are counterfeits.
