Checking in!

Well, today marks the end of the most recent chapter of our travels, and begins a day or two of transition. We left the Allargue Arms this morning, and after enduring the hour and a half of narrow winding roads at 80mph, we arrived at the Aberdeen train station in one piece (thankfully!), and have been sitting on this train for the last 4 hours. It even has free WiFi! 

 

I’ve been battling unfortunately with the Orange France website for much of this time trying to recharge my phone online, and I’m not sure whether I’ve got it or not. I’ve paid for it as far as I can tell, but my account hasn’t been credited yet… Anyone who reads French (I kind of had to just guess…) feel free to lend a helping hand and tell me if there’s something I’m missing here!!

 

Anyway, we’re on this train to London, then we’ll sit around Stanstead airport for 6 hours or so until we can check in for our 6:30am flight to Salzburg in the morning. We should arrive in Salzburg around 9:30am, from where we’ll jump on a train for the hour long trip to Schladming – the base camp for this final World Cup round. We’ve got press passes organised for the event, so provided the UCI doesn’t renege on it’s promises, there should be plenty of photo opportunity over the next week or so. 

 

Stay tuned!
