Amstel Gold Race

As I mentioned in my previous post, it was never intended for me to race this
years Amstel Gold Race. I choose not to have it in my race schedule due to the
length and nervousness of the race, two characteristics which don't really suit
me. I know this as I raced here in 2009. Anyway, I was called in as first reserve,

expected to do my best and to help out our two leaders for this race. We had a

good team here, but at the end of the day we weren't able to deliver any results.

I personally felt ok until about 225km, when there were 35km remaining, I

started dropping back in the bunch until I eventually was dropped. Today we

went for an easy spin in the great weather this area is offering at the moment.

Tomorrow will again be a relaxed day, and then Wednesday it's time for Fleche

Wallonne.

Nice and easy after a long and stressful race Nice and easy after a long and stressful race
