CSC Training Camp
Currently I am in Solvang, CA gearing up for a training camp with Team CSC. CSC is in CA getting ready for the Tour of California that starts on Sunday (2/19). CSC, the company has flown in several of their clients and guests to meet the team and ride with some of the riders. I was able to bring Kris along and so far we are like school children in a candy shop.
As soon as we got to the hotel, the first thing we saw was a Cervelo bike box out in the hallway. We then saw a few people with CSC hats and gear on. We met some guy who works for Intel who is here trying find a showcase for some new technology and he feels that the cycling environment would be an interesting environment to test it in. He is also getting ready to do his 8th Ironman in South Africa.
As we were settling into our room, we decided to head back out and check out the hotel. As we were walking out, we saw Carlos Sastre, one of the best riders of the team walking out of the elevator. I just about fell over. Carlos is one CSC's best climbers. I am just going crazy and can't wait until tomorrow morning.
As we drove into Solvang, we came over some serious hills. For a boy from Minnesota, they were mountains. I think I am going to get my ass kicked tomorrow, but whatever. I am psyched to be here and only wish I could share my excitement first hand with P&G. They are the only one's who will really get it.
