Thought I would post a few words as I found a computer to use. No camera hookup so no pics this time.
Things are going well. Went for a couple of hours this morning and checked out the Kermesse course for tomorrow. This will be me first taste of the real strong stuff this year. The interclub was overall harder, but kermesses tend to be none stop attacks and gutter riding so its an intense experience, a quicker death if you will. The course is very typical Belgian kermesse with the start being on the carnival grounds in the town square in Denderhoutem (kermesse is flemish for carnival). Tons of corners, rough roads, road furniture and windy false flats will be the order of the day tomorrow over the 120 km of racing. Legs felt good on a couple of accelerations so I think its going to be a gooder. The weather is even going to top off the experience nicely with wind and a good chance of some rain in the forecast.
I have some more culinary delights to post and some good photos of the ´´Boonen Effect`` in action for all you Boonen fans (Keech and co.)
Spent three hours in the coffee shop today, watched the Romandie stage now I am going to get the bike ready for battle.
All the best at the races for those opening the road season in Alberta at the GP Bici.

Ya, that kinda sucked at the race track yesterday. That place is way the hell out of the way and I was one of the poor suckers that biked out there for nothing. I'm sure if this was Belgium, they would have held the race for sure.
