Racing in the Land of Holland
The frog is jumping a little extra high today… why? Well well well, because Kristin Armstrong won the Tour of Holland!! Yep, yep it was awesome. She smoked the TT yesterday after a week of weaving in and out of road funiture, squeezing onto narrow roads, getting rained on, rounding round-abouts, and pedaling faster then anyone else.
It was an exciting race that never had a dull moment… right when you think you may be able to grab your water bottle for a sip of water the race was off off and away. Now I am not talking about a true gulp, I really mean a sip… there was just no time for even a goo squeeze. In fact most days when I tried to take a goo squeeze it just ended up on my hands and then my bars.
So we (being Kristin, Katharine, Meredith, Lauren, Brooke, and myself) left the land of Holland and now are either in France for Ardeche (Brooke, Katharine, and me being joined by Katheryn and Alison) or in Italy (Lauren and Kristin) or going home (Meredith). Geeze we are just all over the map, literally.
I am happy to announce that we have left what seems to be a bit of cold weather for a bit of warmer weather. But, now I have just jinked the week, but today was nice.
I guess I better go let my roommate Kat back into the room. I had to lock her out of it so I could use her computer and she keeps banging on it. I just keep telling her I am in the bathroom and come back in a bit. No just kidding, really though lucky for me most days everyone gets a message so when we have internet I rotate from computer to computer as messages are given.
For real though, I am off to find some more sweet one piece safari outfits…
Cheers,
