Welocme Note For Wedding

shame shame

Because of a break from the party photographer who recorded responsible for the Tour de Berne for the pictures, unfortunately, very few pictures exist of this race. Too bad I had to actually got pictures of the mountains classification. Why am I the whole time rumgefahren front row seat on my ? :-P
So now, however, two small search images:
Where's the author? (Hint: pretty far forward, red helmet ;-))

, Switzerland ....

is ... despite all the prejudice in my opinion, a great country: first
there are bike race in this country without the usual red tape made easy
second get in tenth in a field-forest and meadows Every man time trial for 20 francs "victory" premium (for a starting fee of 15 francs!)
But first things first: after three weeks rest from competition (of which I have a week with a I spent a bad cold) today was once again in our beautiful neighboring country to take part in an individual time trial over 26km. Since I in stature am now not sure of the time driver so was the strategy residue limit, from the outset. For the 26km, I was hoping to do less than 40 minutes, which would correspond to an average speed of 39km / h. Once in Gerlafingen, I worked for the first time down the jaw: disc wheels, time trial helmets, time trial bar and the whole program as far as the eye could see. Right in the middle I do not even equipped with a handlebar attachment. But no matter ultimately decided by the legs. So after the warm up and onto the ramp, glasses or straightened times, a bit on the chin strap of the helmet rumgezubbelt (remember to Rolf Aldag in 'hell tour ;-)), and then it was already down from the ramp (there was so a strange carpet on it, feels like chewing gum when shutdown). Speedo at the same time 45km / h, pulse tends to 190th Was indeed going well: no 500 on the road and even the pulse beyond what else can I connect as durable. Out of Gerlafingen stood on it once a nasty crosswind, pulse between 185 and 190, Sun H. pace at 38km / The first wave pushed away, that would hurt in the second round. Then it went around the right: because the wind was then fully on it again. Ouch. Then finally on the way back, hope for a tailwind, but the wind was rather only as an angle from behind, no real help. Then the first round was already over. The pulse continues to commute between 185 and 190 Meanwhile was so in about 19min, I was so on track. The second round was hard, really hard. In particular, the two short waves hurt really, the last kilometer was then almost something like a joy: finally real momentum and speed of 50 on the clock. And then it was already over. 39min 33s stood at the end of Beech (average 39.4 km / h), 10th in a starting field of 22 riders, 3min 40s behind the winner, but the ranking of those without time trial Facilities could have won me ;-)
And for those who want to know: no, time trial is not fun, it hurts only.

At this point, another thanks to the organizers: Super event, nice track and a model controlled traffic (the race was not completely blocked roads instead), and the whole thing without police ... Määs the German and looks with envy with the southern neighbors. As I said, I like Switzerland.

Kandel aftermath

Today was the first run of our little club house racing series, starting and finishing in Sasbach instead of the Kaiserstuhl. That was the one to get up early and the other at 0 ° C wind chill go in the first time to the start. At 9 clock it was in a rather straightforward frame with 7 riders going in Sasbach. First, the circular direction of the Kaiserstuhl, the Texaspaß that I could take the field initially apart, but now alone, the next 40km flat not be met. So I decided to at least 1 to 2 companions to wait, but this resulted in the departure to the fact that everyone else could catch up again. The subsequent flat 40km were a better training trip, because no one felt obliged to pace work, only half-heartedly and was attacked anyway everyone went behind each. About 1km from the finish I used the moment of hauling a driver who had settled slightly, to counter-attack. Unfortunately, I had two other riders at the rear wheel, the three of us then made the outcome of the race from among us. Unfortunately I did not sprint at the finish the legs to again drive past it and was only third. I probably had my speed is at least partially Kandel left yesterday on which I was high yesterday in a fit of irrationality geballert in a new personal record time. Well, a sprinter in this life I will probably not always more, and for next year I'll use me for that one special mountain standing in the RIG-Cup will be installed (and anyway every race with a mountain finish ends ;-)).
We then have a threesome or 60km trained well, so that for this Sunday all in all, are back 150km to book. Now I will insert after the last two weeks a more intensive two-week block GA-before then from middle of May in terms of altitude marathon is in the Black Forest to make.
