Normann
This is an interview done with Normann Stadler last weekend at the triathlon I went to. I also went to a question / answer session with him. Wow. The guy is amazing :)

Bringing the Baby Home
I have my new Baby!! I went to Sutton this morning to pick it up from Pearson Cycles. Those guys are fabulous, William in particular who spent about an hour with me last weekend and 2 hours today. I got him a nice bottle of red to say thanks for all his time. I love buying from places like Pearsons, they are the oldest bike shop in the UK and the 2 guys who have it now are the 5th generation. http://www.pearsoncycles.co.uk/index.html?action=68 gives the family history through the war and so on. Nice to see that places like that survive.
I took my bike out to Richmond park for a few hours to see how it went and I managed to hit 50km hour on the flat! I got into an aero position and just hammered it! So much fun! I was too scared to look down at the speedo coming down the hills :)
Off to the gym tonight for a weights session, and then home for an early night. Rock star lifestyle that I lead.
Went to see Underneath the Lintel last night, fabulous play and I would highly recommend it. 1 character played by Richard Schiff who plays Toby in the West Wing TV series. Really great play.
Bit of inspiration to get me to the gym ASAP... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gOF3obXbEQ&mode=related&search=
