Couldn't fend off the sickness :-(

Tomorrow we depart for Berne. I have been pretty under the weather, so I haven’t been riding the last few days. Unfortunately our super speedy climber extraordinaire also seems to be coming down with the cold - the frustrating reality of traveling and living in close quarters with others. The weather has been beautiful 20 degrees, so it has been very hard to be inside resting up. Yesterday we received the new Canadian team uniforms and had our photo taking with the mayor of Bissone. The picture was is in the local paper today which is fun. It has been a great stay and I think the hotel and restaurant staff will miss us – we kept them entertained with our efforts to speak Italian while ordering seemingly endless meals. I will post a picture of our team in the new uniforms soon.
