Friday 15th: Grand Prix Castelsagrat


I was in the right move, in the break all day, I formed the 13 man break, but was lacking punch when the going got tough. I could hold on and follow fine, but the intermediate sprints and attacks are where I felt my lack of form.


In the end I watched 4 riders ride away with 10k to go and couldn't jump with them... then I tried but couldn't jump on the last hill coming up to the finish.















What's going on back there? Have I done any damage yet?
In the end I was 8th and very dissapointed. Actually that's pretty good for someone who hasn't raced in over a month and a half... but it was frustrating not having any kick at all.... it'll come back with a bit of racing and training
