Once you are on the dirt or gravel, try not to tense your upper body. Use your core strength to manoeuvre the bike. #dressliveride #theunsupported #roadporn #wymtm #tcr15 #adventurecycling #gravelroad #outsideisfree #gravelbike #radfahren #cycling #bikeiscool
CAMILLE MCMILLAN’s photo report of the Transcontinental 2015 on the Fujifilm blog here
My friend Samuel “Wichlor” is currently in fifth position on his way to Istanbul for the Transcontinental 2015 ... GO SAM!
Found here and you can follow him on his Facebook page and on the tracker ... respect to Clem, Kiwi (on his fixed gear !) and all others competitors, such an odyssey!
What, only 3 more days?
This has been a totally insane week. Not content of only doing the TCR half way across the world, I also decided to transfer my whole life back to Europe at the same time (finishing selling and packing my furniture, saying proper goodbye to friends) while still working on finishing the preparations of the race.
My 70kg of baggage arrived safe and sound at CDG on Thursday. I found my bike box wide open when I picked it up, but fortunately nothing was missing. I still wonder how this happened. Never mind. If nothing is missing them it's like nothing happened.
After a enjoyable 2 days in Paris, I drove all the way to Brittany to visit my parents and put together my bike. I did it with my dad, who helped me on the gear adjustment and fitting the brand new fenders. It will be most useful to keep myself away from the rain spray, and keep both the gear and myself somewhat cleaner.
Time to upload my documents (doctor's note, proof of insurance, proof of address...) on the TCR website. Mike Hall, the race organizer, made this possible to save all riders some time on the D-day. Bad news, the site is down when I am ready to do the upload. I also tested the Navigation for the first time in Europe today. I had to completely reset my device so it can acquire satellites. The maps seem to work ok, thanks god. I split half of my route in several parts so the files can be handled more easily. I hope to have everything tested again tomorrow, gear, devices and maps. I can't believe we're almost there.
