Didn’t sleep much last night, too excited plus worried about the bikes that were locked up outside. Some teams had their bikes stolen from a hotel garage so couldn’t start yesterday.
But it’s sat morning and they are still here so no excuse!
We have had a team strategy this week… I go ahead on the climbs and learn about some German culture from our new friends then go back to Chippo and take his mind off the climbing with some education…
or some singing if I have a bigger audience!
Our knees are competing with our butts to be our biggest pain but a lot of teams are quitting due to knee problems.
Last day today , and it’s all downhill. Apart from the final 9 miles, which are, of course, all up hill! Wish us luck, it’s been line to us so far. Just need enough for another 80kms, that’s all.
