Andalucia Bike Race Day 0

Cindy's sleep has been animated lately. She confirmed that she does like Christmas trees, hummed the Beverly Hills cop soundtrack, woke me up to make sure the people were all right - and most notably - came up with our team motto: "we can do it!".

TomTom GPS do the trick, but one thing I'm not impressed with is they tell you route guidance like a second before you need to turn. They're like having a 7 year old kid give instructions. It's completely inadequate for functional driving to be going 60kph then it says "turn right in 50 feet" and by the time it's done, you're past the turn. It's fine if you look at the graphical display.

Cindy decided that breakfast at our hotel was good, mostly because it included pan au chocolate.

We built our bikes in the morning, dropped the rental car off then realized I forgot to fill it with gas, so we'll get dinged a bit on that. Walked around with Thomas and Dave through the old part of town and had coffee and another pan au chocolate. Shawn and Ashley were at the hotel when we got back, so we suited up and went for a ride overlooking town. Race checkin went smoothly, then it's just sitting around wishing food was available.
