The morning after the night before came around about 2 hours to soon for me... the Stella from the night before was defo still with me when i went down of breakfast! luckily for me i was the worst effected! faces around the table looked as i was feeling so we kind of knew although it was a short riding day the start was going to be a little harder than it could have been.
After a short delay while Kirk's cleats were changed we were off.
The countryside is changing fast now with long rolling climbs around pretty much every corner. Thank god the never ending flat straight have finished, great at first but the novelty wears off as it hard on you ar##. Rolling hills and great decent's make for more interesting riding, harder work but fun!
My legs felt great today... even had a sprint with Craig, Christian and a couple of French riders... I really hope they feel like this in a couple of day time.
I had the first little knee grumble today... nothing major just a bit of tension, a quick rub and some ibuprofen gel and we're good to go :)
The rain stayed off right till the very end of the day.
Big day tomorrow! over 100 miles and hilly! by the end of it we will see the Mountains for the first time! Can't wait! no really i can't.
