We're now back from our final overseas preparation trip, to the fantastic french region of Burgundy. A five day trip which consisted of much team planning, discussions and most importantly team building. The four riders rode over 500km in a two day period whilst myself and the remainder of the support party concentrated on the aforementioned issues.
A great time was had by all. Myself (team mechanic) and Marco (crew chief) managed to get a good few rides in ourselves, and in addition to working on the team bikes, I serviced and made good some bikes that were owned by the accommodation owners.
Good trip all round, and to summarise I now feel that we're almost ready to tackle the RAAM in earnest. With only around 4 weeks until we depart for the USA, there will be plenty of final planning and preparation to be done, which we now are confident will happen smoothly. Fingers crossed huh!
Next bike stuff for me, working on a London2Paris organised charity trip this coming weekend.
Bye for now
