Tour de Swiss 2008 Part I

The event is held 14th to 22nd of June this year. Last year I followed 
all the stages of Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré. It was fun! I intended
to do the same this year but it turned out the first couple of stages
would be held tooooo far away from my home in Germany. Shame!

So I switched to Tour de Swiss. Switzerland is not too far.

I intend to visit Switzerland between 15th and 22nd. I cannot follow
all the stages simply because I have to be careful about the money. Tour
de France is nearing and I know I spend a lot of dough in July.

My plan for the moment, I will ...

• Stage 1:14th (Saturday) be working and will miss out on the stage
  
• Stage 2:15th (Sunday) be in Langnau im Emmental
  
• Stage 3:16th (Monday) be somewhere and training on my bike
  
• Stage 4:17th (Tuesday) ditto
  
• Stage 5:18th (Wednesday) be at Lukmanierpass
  
• Stage 6:19th (Thursday) be in Ambri, I guess
  
• Stage 7:20th (Friday) camp out at Klausenpass and be painting
  
• Stage 8:21st (Saturday) be at Klausenpass
  
• Stage 9:22nd (Sunday) be in Bern
  

This way, I will save some money while having fun and can train
myself to be fit for Tour de France.
