I'm back....

Back in the saddle again! It's a little colder than it was in Tucson, but I got some good solid riding in a very short time frame. Andrea had a follow up at Foot Fitness yesterday and received her custom orthotics! She said the Dr. added another 2mm under her shoes and she feels great! I am pumped after riding behind her for the last 10 years watching her ankle, knees, hips, and back do all sorts of crazy things. The doc is also making some orthotics with a lift for her walking and running shoes....I'll update in a month and we'll see how much more comfy she is....

As for me it's back on the bike in WI with lots of layers of clothing. Also back to helping Dano paint the new bike shop. Staying busy has been the name of the game....

Although I did have a relaxing Sunday afternoon and watched Stijn rip up the Ronde for the 2nd consecutive year! I heard he ate a Ham & Cheese at the 4:00 mark in the feed zone....his secret was mustard!


















Any predictions for P-R this Sunday....I heard Hincapie was out eating Ham & Cheese with the same Mustard that team Quick Step uses....

Predictions:

1. Hincapie
2. Boonen
3. Pozzato

I like Sutton on Slipstream. I think he's focused for a big opportunity. And they might let him slip away in a later group due to the lack of time with the big boys.

Didn't Barry Sanders play for the Lions? He carried that team single handedly, he would have no problems with the cobbles are a big dude like Boonen.

Hello everybody! My bet for Paris-Roubaix is: 1. Flecha, 2. Maaskant,
3. Ballan. I recognise there is a bit of Spanish sympathy for Flecha but I think he deserves it as he´s shown a great commitment to this race in the past few years. We´ll see what happens. I think Devolder will be very marked after showing such a superiority in the Tour of Flanders. It would be historical for a Spaniard to win Paris-Roubaix.
