Blog number 2 - Training camp in Spain

So after boarding the plane and leaving dreary England at half 7 in the morning on Wednesday, we were on our way to Calpe for two weeks of sun, sea, and a lot of bike riding.

After going through customs, being overcharged by a taxi company, waiting for a bus for an hour, and not a lot of warm weather, we finally arrived at our apartment.

We quickly unpacked and first priority was getting out in the sun, and that we did ! Me and Keira were extremely wary as just a couple of days before we got absolutely ruined on my team launch ride, so out we headed into 18 degrees sun, layered up, leg warmers, thermals, and over shoes, up a 7% climb for about 3 miles. Safe to say we were cooked at the top!

Couple more days down the line trainings going well, you realise how bad it is training in London, or really anywhere in the UK after coming to somewhere like here. I'm finally not a milk bottle either!

Tonight we've been out on the bikes, had a 2 hour sunbathe, demolished a Chinese buffet and walked about 7 miles, pretty productive day I'd say!

Night from Spain ☺️
