5 races on  only one weekend ?

...what the Fuck....

First of all, there were 4 races at the „ Tour de Wendland”.
On Friday evening : Prolog – 7km TT
Saturday: 120km road race
Saturday evening: 50km criterion
Sunday: 21km TT

And just because of the fact, that tiny Markus, Willy, Andreas and the rest of the toddler group bothered me all the time, if I would join them at the race in Buchholz, I did it as a dessert.

Prolog on Friday already hurt a bit, with two steep ascents of 14%...things getting good started…

Than we took dinner in the evening, sadly most of the restaurants already closed at 21:00o´clock. Just a snack bar, a doner kebab barrack and a Greek restaurant were still open. Luckily I put on my bullet proof west.

...and my gang already waited for their chief….

The next day we had a funny 120km road bike race. We had everything from dry, drizzle and wait a minute where are my wipers for my glasses. It felt like you had lots of liters of rain in your shoes. One round before the end even Rainer came into the “box” and didn´t want to go on…

Sabrina and Gaby froze as well, even they drink lots of coffee...

In the evening I decided not to race while it was raining, but as we stood at the starting line the sun came out again…AAAARRRGHH…
PirateAllright, so the others had to ride without me….

Moni, Silke and Heiko still hoisted our colors…..

The very next day, I had to watch the kandscape together with Gaby…beautiful…

Afterwards, the 21kmTT stand on our schedule…Well, If my old leisure suit tux, would still fit me???

…but tell me why the heck, is Gaby sitting here on a knob and pictures herself???
Pirate
No matter, here you can see the fastest Pirate of the day, of the days. Chapeau Heiko, great job.

Finally I went to the MTB in Bucholz just to ride circles together with Markus and Willy and to enjoy the wonderful cakes and pies over there.

Until next year,  I´ll spent some more time on exercising, on exercising eating cakes of course…
