Welcome to our blog. Hopefully keeping everyone interested plugged in to all things happening surrounding our adventure getting to France and the long distance triathlon world championships event itself.
Yesterday was quite busy as we tried to get many things done in preparation for packing and departure:
- up early for last pool-swim workout
- quick trip from pool to mountain equip coop to pick up fresh batteries for my powertap (computer in rear wheel which measures how much power in watts I am transferring from pedals to rear wheel).
- back home by 10, replaced batteries in hub, put wheel back on bike and headed out for last real training session (2.5 hrs) felt good as it was both short and low intensity.
- quick lunch then trip to bank, pickup supplies for the hot tub, returned to Victoria for one last visit with my sports-chiro-guy and get final tune-up.
- Back to west shore to pick up some body glide (anti-chaffing stuff), pizza slice then hair cut.
- Rushed home to grab all my lake swimming gear and headed to lake for a pre-dinner swim.
- It was cool so we warmed up at local pub with drinks and dinner.
- Home to bed.
Anyhow, today's primary mission is to pack the bike for travel:
Into my fancy soft bike bag:
A after a couple of hours cleaning, dis-mantling, watching youtube a few choice words now and again, mission accomplished:
And that brings us to the creation of this blog as my after dinner task. It will take shape over the weekend, hope you enjoy.
Great hat.
ReplyDeleteIf you sold the bike in France, how many loaves of bread do you think that you could stuff into the bag?
