Not a lot to say apart from I did achieve what I set out to do and that was finish the C grade cycling race. I came home in 11th place. I also lead the first lap.
The average speed was not as fast as it had been in previous races however there was more surging. Also because of a gardener testing sprinklers the tight first turn was wet and I did wobble a couple times into the corner.
Next challenge is to not place in the top ten or higher.
Well it is almost time. Tomorrow is the 5th and final race and I have done all I can in preparation. Below are some of the stats I have built for this event.
All this effort for an event that will last no more than 35 minutes. Sounds easy. Wrong. If it was I would not have put in all this. So as has happened in the past. Getting lapped and dropping out is not an option. This time I AM GOING TO FINISH even if it kills me.
Event takes place at Broady Hall Drive, Technology Park Bently from 8am. Will write a post tomorrow telling how I went.
More photos from Tony Lendrum Photography. I managed to complete the 30 minute timed section of the race with an average over 35kph. I still technically did not finish but still did better than I expected. I just got home from doing an 80km ride to Hillarys and solo. Sort of a recovery ride but chance to clear my head. Some photos from yesterday below.
