California

                                         I'm out in Truckee right now.  Its nice.

                                                                              Pete Cowan, Spencer Eusden and I went on a long run this morning along the pacific crest trail. The Reno Rodeo is currently taking place.  Sadly I was unprepared for the cowboy dress code in my crocs and shorts, and the pictures don't do it justice; however, it was a pretty sweet scene.

Before the bull riding a series of five your old kids rodeod some sheep.  You can see the sheep after they have bucked their riders off, there might be a kid riding in the background as well.

Impressions from the Critérium du Dauphiné


Greetings from Switzerland.
A couple days ago, my parents and I went to see the final stage of the Critérium du Dauphiné, which was ending near my town, just across the border in France. 

Here some highlights:

A special Europcar supporter

The "Groupe Maillot Jaune" w/ leader B. Wiggins

Hurtin...

The Mountain King (having a not so royal day...)

The Boss: Samuel "Samu" Sanchez

Vinokourov out of retirement

The "Gruppetto"

Scenes from the finish

Fitting right in... (I even got asked for my autograph)
Keep up the training. As the Germans say, cross-country skiers are made in the summer.
