Guten Morgen

How are you doing today? Well its September and the cold mornings have started to rear its ugly face, but it doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom.

Last week I was at Eurobike in Friedrichsarfen, it’s the last time it will ever be hosted their and it was a pleasure to say goodbye to it. The next time will be in Frankfurt and much easier to get to and starts on the day of my birthday 👀.

Don’t get me wrong, Lake Konstanz is beautiful, but very hard to get back from. Especially when there is a train strike. I ended up having to get a train to Stuttgart, Koln and then to Berlin and arrived back well after midnight…

Right anyway, there was a beer on the train and wifi to watch the Vuelta so on to the content. I have some cool things lined up as always to help you, and some awesome cycling content to accompany.
