6-Day World Trophy 2015 – The First Day

A quick update on William pre-race and in the very early stages of the 144hr event.

Camp Sichel is rather more upmarket than usual…

William (all be it briefly) and the crew (Alan Young & Wendy Edwards) have some very nice accomodation during the 6-Day World Trophy event (not that William will truly get to appreciate it much as he’ll probably only set foot inside for bried rests and short sleeps).

 

The weather in Balaton has been good so far, and pre-race preparations went well.

On the morning the race began, it was 30° c.  and very sunny.

William set off in high spirits and has been enjoying himself in the early stages.

More news coming shortly…
