Off to race in Japan

It means that I am going to skip two one-day races in Italy, including Lombardy as I will ride the Japan Cup instead. My hand injury has improved and I am happy to compete at one more race as I´ve been training so hard lately. Specialized might also give a presentation of their bikes so I will mix business with pleasure. Other than that, I will meet my former physiotherapist Nakano who retired after the Tour and now lives in Japan. I am quite looking forward to seeing him again.
