Hi,
I came back from a nice week in Tenerife [Canary Islands] where me and my wife relaxed and sunbathed in a wonderful clima. Now I have started to think about the 2006 season. I've already received the notification of the first team meeting, which will take place from November 28th until December 1st in Santander.
During the meeting I will define a general schedule for the next season. I will see if I can manage to race in a Track World Cup (Los Angeles in January or Sidney in early March). Other races that I strongly want to ride, and perform well, are the new Tour of California in February and, of course, the Giro d'Italia. The Giro which suites well to Simoni, my new teammate. But everything will be determined with my team directors.
Today I have begun riding my bike, well fresh and rested... and of course focusing my mind!
Bye
Marco
