TDF and J and J on 3rd July!

Salut!

The past week have been an eventful one. I went to Paris to visit my brother-in-law, so I have to leave poor Calvin behind=)! It was also a good break for me (still brought my bike there to train though, can't live without it) as my quads are not getting any better, so am going to see a physio this wednesday. Calvin did some good training and raced on Sunday, a CAT 2/3 road race and finished in the peleton, well done! Now we are not afraid of CAT2/3 already, only CAT 1 can make us taste copper and eat bartape.

Fortunately for us, this few months that we are here are packed with lots of stuff! In May, there was the Giro d'italia, then June Coupe du Monde 2010 and next week will be the Le Tour! So we have lots to keep us occupied besides training.

Calvin went to Switzerland today in hope of being able to extend his stay in France. Apparently, they didn't stamp the passport! All the trouble for nothing, poor Calvin, at least he got to see Switzerland's Geneva.

We will be racing this weekend, no information yet, and Damien 'papa' might bring us to the pyrenees for some hard man's training! Can't wait and hope my leg gets better then.

Also J and J are set to arrive on the 3rd of July, next Saturday, nice, now we can go for group ride, and also group watching of Le Tour.

Bon Courage to those racing on Sunday, looking forward for the National Champion Jersey to come to France, ha!!
