I always managed to enjoy my racing, viewing race day as just another part of a sequence of "inputs":- whatever the outcome........(Clearwater excepted!!).........I could always find the positives.
Today, however, I am a little stressed, probably at the "unknowns" ahead. All not helped by a decidedly "iffy" back. Will doubtless be a bit more chilled by tomorrow evening once I've got started on the challenge and visited my Chiropractor (thank you for squeezing me in tomorrow: see you at 5:00pm, Sharon!!)
One decision will be whether to attempt the TT bike tomorrow or to play it safe and jump on the "Tarmac".
Tim, I know is apprehensive about the length of day 1 with 75 miles of biking but will have Nicky Yevko to help make sure he keeps it sensible on the run.
Kev's experience will keep him calm, although he'll be conscious of his "suspect" calf.
Steve seems pretty chilled at present.
The real challenge will be in managing the week at sensible pacing so as to be able to cope with ForestMan a week today.
The most important thing is the fantastic support we've been receiving. Fundraising is going well......but still not well enough. Tell your friends and family to give us a hand: every single donation is gratefully received!!!
Speak tomorrow
Richard
