hotel torino


today we all rest. i did a few hours in a volvo. through the mont blanc tunnel and made it to aosta, italia. here i am at the bar in hotel torino. writing for cykelmagasinet.dk and uploading pictures. besides drinking pastis in the sun in a white shirt and black leather shoes. and a suit. a guy from napoli came and asked me for a cigarette at a cafeteria around noon. he later told me, that he used to be a dj at strip clubs in milano and napoli. but theres no strip clubs to be found in aosta. we agreed to meet later for a drink.

fascination goes further than this. i mean. im a trained sushichef. i worked with japanese chefs for years. no - i worked under those guys - for years. the face of this guy when he arrived in verbier today reminded me of those sweet hard times in a japanese kitchen.

russian victory



too quick?


anonymous quick step rider after todays stage. on his way to the team bus, he told me, that going down wasnt the most devastating part of a crash. getting up was much worse. i didnt have a clue what he meant, so i just firred my canon a few times.

copster


and uncounted amount of serious men doing their job. in briancon.

'interdit' he yelled and crossed his arms. i ignored him since that is my weapon of choice when i meet the cops.

'interdit' he screamed and blew his whistle. with ringing tinnitus i moved forward and realized that he hadnt even seen me.

i stumbled over the fence to get to the astana bus, where the woman in high heels, striped dress and sweet fumes was trying to flirt an astana cap from a soigneur.

she still wears that cap when i visit her in copenhagen.

a straight line


dauphiné libéré 2009 - rehearsing for the tour - i went in a small car to the town of briancon. i went with a woman dressed up in high heels, a red striped dress and sweet fumes.

with blue mountains in the mirrors of a very small car, we almost flew back to lyon and a hotel room.
