I’m writing this sat on a 'Nothing beats a Jet2 holiday' plane – try saying that not to the tune of the viral advert! I'm en route to Calpe, or Altea specifically, a coastal town on Spain's Mediterranean coast, for XDS Astana's January training camp.
I’ve been told to have a great holiday on multiple occasions by their friendly staff. I laughed internally at the reality; a holiday it is not, but it doesn't quite feel like work either. I’ll land at a similar time to some riders, such is the logistical masterpiece put together by my colleague Francesca and the rest of the team's staff who organise the camp.
