First blog on here, see how it goes! Well... guess ill start with where im heading this year, which is BIC 2000, a division 1 espoir amateur team based in Brest, Brittany. (last yr i was on division 2 team, then the next step up is continental... pro!) They've had a re-shuffle of the team for this season and have got rid of several riders and got in more new faces, resulting in a really good team line up for 2009, and also a gud bunch of lads too. I'll be living in the same town as i did in '08, Quimper as i know people to train with there and i also know the area, with a few team mates near by so all is set for a cracking season! Just need to get out there now... 17days... not that im counting!
im going over there for a training camp followed by team presentations, then i start racing on the 19th February at a big early season series called Plages Vendéenes of which we are doing 3 races and also spending some time there on a little camp get together. I cant wait to get back up to race speed again!

at the moment tho, all is going well, no injuries/ sick days yet this winter so cant complain. i've just started a 10day endurance block of back to back 4/5/6hrs, day off then back on, doing this 3times. Did 6today so have rest day tomo which will go down nicely!! best bit about these rides is the eating involved to replace whats lost on the bike- LOTS!

anyways, hope your not suffering to badly from the cold!

ill try keep this updated as often as possible with whats going on.
