I‘m back on the road. Somehow I still get very excited every time I am about to leave. Destination: Boulder, Colorado.  Purpose: Hawaii preparation.  With who: double world champion Craig Alexander.  Special info: 6 weeks altitude then straight to Kona, Hawaii for the big show down in 2010.

I just arrived back in Luxembourg after a long training camp in the Pyrenees followed up by Ironman 70.3 Antwerp.  I placed 3rd there on Sunday and am happy with the overall race.  I felt great coming down from altitude.  In a couple of days I will write up a full race report for you guys–but until then you can check out this clip from RTL.

I decided yesterday to start at the Gala Tour de France here in Luxembourg tomorrow–with Andy, Frank, and a bunch of other great TdF riders. Will keep you guys posted on that too.

I have been glued to the TV for the past couple of days–no I haven’t been watching the World Cup–I have been watching my all time favorite spectating event–the Tour de France.

Of course I am supporting my fellow Luxembourgers out there on the road–Frank & Andy Schleck.  I dug up this cool TV show we did together at the end of last year.  2009 was a great year for me (and Luxembourg Sport)–hoping 2010 is going to be even better!

I still owe you guys some feedback after the last two races, I have been pretty busy lately, but now everything seems to be back to normal (well as normal as it will ever be).
