Giro d'Espoo 2013

So tomorrow it will begin, Giro d'Espoo 2013, my first "race" of the year 2013. ​The route is the same as last year, 111 km with small rolling hills along the route. The bike is cleaned, the bag is packed, ready to roll.

Today we took a short easy spin with a couple of short sprints to get the legs ready for tomorrow. Some small issues with my right knee, hopefully it will be fine tomorrow.

​Great weather for an easy spin

​Last year I had a live tracking gps device from the organizers, this year I will use Endomondo to track. So you will be able to follow me live tomorrow as well. A live link will be posted to my twitter feed @mipaulin. A link should also appear on my Endomondo page here. The start is at 11 am Finnish (Helsinki) time (EEST). You can always check the local times from timeanddate.com

I'll be posting photos on The Invisible Hill facebook page as it happens, so if you're interested of how the day is progressing, you can go to the facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/TheInvisibleHill.

​I'll get back to you again after the race, with a race report. Meanwhile, enjoy your Saturday evening, let's hope it will be a good Champions League Final! And if you at some point have been wondering how good or bad I am as a cyclist, you at least know I'm far of being professional, below you see why:

​Happy pedaling folks!
