Turns out we had a pretty big issue with some audio cards in the router. In order to reset the problem, they’d have to pull everything, and the crew wasn’t about to do that in the middle of a live show. Once they found their error, it never happened again. At first I wasn’t sure if this new Belgian crew was as good as the last, but it turns out these guys are alright, and will always have a solution to the problem.With their fixes, I had a much easier show today. No time trialing, no 30-odd ENG tapes thrown at me, no live interview rolls made for a MUCH smoother show in tape.
That Mark Cavendish sure is fast. I wonder if he’s doping. He is the self-proclaimed fastest man on two wheels apparently. I like how people self-proclaim things. I think I’m the fastest man on four wheels. You can’t beat me when I’m behind the wheel. Well, you probably can. But I can still proclaim it.
Well, I’m ashamed to say it unfortunately, but today I made a serious navigational error. After emerging from a toll booth, our GPS showed a 3-way split in the road. Paying more attention to her and less my surroundings, I mistakenly directed Joel in the exact reverse direction. What made it worse was the fact that another car in our group was behind us, and followed suit. Long story short, it resulted in a 30-minute detour, of which my carmates were not pleased. I promised to buy dinner.
All was forgiven when we finally arrived however. I am excited, as we will be staying here (in Montpellier) for two nights. It’s just a short drive over to La Grande Motte for tomorrow, then back here for the Montpellier time trial.
