The whole thing on a racing bike?? That's totally do-able!!!
Captain Aalbörner and I met up in the Atlantis Suite Resort
to roll into the 2007 season.
We had to shorten the pre-planned route distances a bit, because
we had underestimated the wind and overestimated our physical
fitness. At 9:30am, our eyes constantly on our pulses, we started
our day with backwind, knowing full well that the wind would
really screw up our averages on the way back. We spent a few
pleasant hours on our bikes, having more or less intellectual
conversations and calmly rolling along
9:30am in Corralejo
After a short while we had to retighten our chain rings and
change our tires.
My house (see flag), my car, my bike...
After a long straight shot….
….there were some slight inclines
We also had some time to sunbathe…
…and practice our jumps...
Warning, this place is inhabited by…
…wild animals!!!!!!!
Triathlete training (flat, windy and the countryside?... mentally
challenging)
One takes bread with cheese (Carsten'll quickly make it)+
a small cup of ice cream +
add a Cannondale plus Ron

The heroes at the pool "whale watching" after the tour
A great week on Fuerteventura with our bikes
In February 2008 we will be repeating this whole thing within
the framework of the Pirate Tours. If you're interested contact
me, so that we can plan accordingly!
