So that’s it! The best race of the year is over, it’s all downhill from here to the end of the season! Just kidding… but Strade Bianche is one of the season highlights. Come rain or shine it delivers every year, without fail. If the UCI announced they were overhauling the UCI Women’s WorldTour and there would now be a Strade Bianche once a month I’d be totally ok with that!
This morning was all about what to wear both for me and the cameras. It’d be cold at the start but soon warm up and then the cameras: To put the rain covers on, to protect them from the dust or not. I went with the less is more options for both. Dispatched my hoodie in the Bigla camper at the start (it’ll have to stay there to Drenthe now) and no covers on the cameras. Was a good decision on both counts as it was even pretty nice temperatures at the start and the cameras didn’t get (too much) dust inside them (hate using the cameras with covers on!).
Now for a few days to relax before heading up to Holland for Ronde van Drenthe and the all new VAMberg climb!
