Been brewin' up the creative stew for my own letter...hope to submit it soon. Shall we expect your name to eventually appear there, Matt?
Man...I'd really like to "watch" the racing for once.
I do always crave the grand tour experience and the suffering, though. It will come down to money, time and how interesting the peloton looks by May. Also, the weather is a consideration. The outside chance to improve my PR could be enough of a motivator. The current record is weak and I feel confident I--and many others--can take at least a full day out of 17:21. It's about 30 hours to the border and, in `07 I put in a 15:22 domestic effort (following prologue), so sub 17 ought to be pretty doable with good course conditions.
Sub 16 GDMBR full-pull is the ultimate club to dream about!
Hey, I meant to say in the OP, let's keep the 'TD Basics' thread going for FAQ stuff. This is just a communique. Word up!
