DS Johnny Weltz reports from Slipstream/Chipotle H3O’s team time trial training camp in Girona, Spain that is running through Monday, May 5.

The team time trial camp here in Girona is going very well. We have ten riders here and nine of them will be going to the Giro. We’ll make the final selection on Tuesday. The riders participating in the training include Magnus Backstedt, Julian Dean, Christian Vande Velde, David Millar, David Zabriskie, Chris Sutton, Danny Pate, Lucas Euser, Ryder Hesjedal and Pat McCarty.

The camp is being run by DS Matt White and Adrie van Diemen with Allen Lim flying in. They are doing intervals and tuning up the engines. Millar, Zabriskie, Christian and Maggy are all very strong. We’ll see how things finish up on Monday.

The rest of the riders and I fly up to Paris today to race the Trophée de Grimpeur tomorrow.
