My home for the next two monthsI arrived safely in Brussels on Thursday evening with all of my baggage in tact. My bike box came out on the regular converer belt again and I didnt pay a cent to take it on the plane so the packing job is proven internationally now for all who want to save some money.
I am staying with my team manager Tino in his house in Liedekerke. Its a great location, close to the good roads and close to Kaffepotje (local tearoom, best coffee and pancakes on earth, pancake post to follow). His house is like living in a designer house magazine, its a nice place.
The first couple of days were spent getting my bike together and trying to get my legs back after the long flight. On Saturday I took in a local kermesse were the team (High 5) took the win, third and fourth place.
I have good computer access so updates should come several times per week. Among the posts to come will be a look at Belgian pancakes and coffee as well as a full report from my first race of 2006.
Its great to be in Flanders again.
The bikepath along the Dender river, my regular recovery route.
First things first, what I will be wearing on the roads of Flanders the next 8 weeks.
