Two weeks ago, i reached my biggest goal ever. i finished the TourUltime. thats race like the famous RaceAcrossAmerica. 4'069km around france with 50'000m to climb. All who have ridden both said, that the TourUltime was the harder one.
I finished the race as second in 10 days an 2 hours. That was now really the hardest thing i've ever done. but after the race, we have to say the it should be possible to do faster again.
If i'll do something like that again, i don't know. I would like to ride something like that again. but the organisation before that race and generally, to pay so a lot of money to take part of a race like this, that i don't like to do again. Not now, but we wanna see what the time will bring us.
Now i take the training very much easier. I ride only when the weather is good. Next friday, maybe, i'll do a little ride over some passes again. the flashpoints are mounted and are waiting to go out....
