Welcome to St. Pölten!

Wow... what a different atmosphere than our last race!
From the busy touristy Orlando to the small Euro town of St. Pölten, Austria.
We have to say....what a nice change.
We are located just south of town and about 6k from the race site.
When we arrived yesterday, our taxi (Heathers cousin Alex) rang the bell of the hotel that seemed to "open" at 5pm to ask if we could be let in early.
Our room is great, very European and suits our needs at the time....a warm shower and a BED!
We grabbed a fabulous meal at the hotel and then crashed at about 7pm...it had been a long day.
We awoke at 5:30am to traffic and we were both pleased to have settled any time zone issues. We have just finished our breakfast and will head up to the room to build the bikes and test them out.

We have been able to meet and chat with a few other racers. One from Munich and a family who has come up from Italy.

There is no wireless or room-wired internet, so we are standing in the lobby updating the blog. We will pop in a pre-race note later. Now, off to see how the bikes made out!

Cheers!

Brian and Heather
