update
| well im down in good old track camp in invers now, things have been going sweet! just climbed off the massage table and by christ my legs needed it, they were pretty buckled after yesterdays session of knocking round on a 110′ gear haha. its raining now so the avo road ride after this mornings session has been canned which is mint, more time to chill (and sneak in a bit of chocolate hah) track nationals ended up going really well which was pleasing, i knocked out a 4.26 and a 4.25 in the evening session to get the bronze medal in the individual pursuit, then the mighty mid south team was tanking in the teams pursuit final, but we were stopped when we caught waikato, we were on a dream run, after going through 2km in 2.02 who knows what time we could have done. we’ve all settled into camp now nicely and have had a pretty quick week on the boards, we fly out to france on tuesday to Hyeres for a 9 day block then we hit manchester. theres a pretty strong belief amongst us all now that we could do something pretty magic over there, and the training times we are doing so far are pretty good, so here’s hoping! i think one of the major improvements we’ve had is craig palmer is working with us now, so is looking after all our power data which has been fantastic. for example today we thought we were all on a rough day, but he had a look at our srms and could tell instantly the track was running about 3 inches in gear slower than the day before, its just little things like that that make a big difference, and stop us from pulling our hair out when we think our legs arent there haha. its also good to be able to really analyse our data from the teams pursuits, and find little things to improve on, for example he picked up a huge thing in my changes that we are trying to iron out which could hopefully save alot of effort and strain on the pins, which will obviously rock. the only funny thing of note thats happened so far was that willy decided to park the team van on carsy’s foot today outside subway, and then just sat there while carsy politely asked him to shift the van off his foot. after a wee while willy actually caught on that it was a serious matter and shifted, while we all pissed ourselves in the back of the van big time haha, he’ll probably get fired tomorrow. |
