Mikko said that atleast for him, it's easier to start the race at the right pace if he's been doing some similar riding just before it, like riding to the start instead of flying or riding LEL just before TCR like he did before the first race. So you should be fine. :D
So Eurostar trip followed by walking around random Belgian towns drinking random Belgian beers is doing it wrong? There's another day off my finish time ;)
