But no worries, in front of the hotel there is a rental MTB shop and in case they can't help, there is always ...Tito! I can continue my rides here, but still, I am not happy, it's just not cool to break nice stuff. DT Swiss, 1380 Carbon, why did I bring them here?
But enough complaining. About the trails. Today's ride was a shorty: 45k but still 1350 height meters. The main course a very steep climb divided in parts: a little bit of climbing a little bit of descent alternating. Partly on gravel roads, partly single trails, endlessly. We finished on a concrete road of 25%, mixed with an exceptional heavy wind that's been blowing since Tuesday eve. Quite tough!
Logically what you climb, you can descent, I was rewarded with a very nice downhill. It started on a graveled road and soon it went over in a nice but very rocky single trail. And this is probably where it happened ... the rim ...
Back in the hotel, there was a little surprise. A Flemish soigneur following a Swedish continental team ( People4you ), was expecting me for a massage. Maurice knows what he's been doing and my legs are thankful for this unexpected treat. My mind is happy with the complement he gave: "These are well trained muscles, the result of a well balanced training." On the other hand he could feel they were not used to massages. It is time to put my man at work!
