Hi BiciRace,
The race here in Switzerland is going well. The race is beautiful and after some suffering in the first stage I managed to finish 15th in the hard Time Trial (which can be considered a 14th place since Sinkewitz was penalized of 42"). I was felling good, even though I had lost some place in the last part. But I can be happy, and I'm looking ahead at the next time trial - The Italian Champs next Tuesday.
Now our man for the overall in the Tour de Suisse is Jeker, and I will help him. I will also use this race as a training to keep me fit for the Italian Champs (TT). Also the American, Horner, is feeling good and he hopes to improve and get a spot for the next Tour de France. I will watch him on TV, of course. I think I deserve some rest in July!
bye
