Packing and Preparing for Czech Republic with GB team.

This week sees Robert preparing his skis and luggage ready for the flight out to Prague at the weekend to compete at the Ski- Interkriterium races in Ricky, Czech Republic. The team plan to also compete in the Czech National qualifying competition as well as the main event as this gives them a chance to race on the competition slope before the main event. Robert will also be lucky enough to experience a bit of Czech culture with a walking guided tour of Prague on their arrival.It's a beautiful place, they're all very lucky! Baggage is a major headache when travelling by air with ski race equipment but over the years we have kind of got it down to a fine art....hopefully!! Not easy with 23kg luggage allowance when your ski boots alone weigh 10kg before you pack everything else. With an additional two ski bags and origami style clothes packing Robert will be ready to give the races his best shot. He just hopes and prays that his new 2012 season GB Trespass jackets arrive in time!!
