Arrived to a relatively fair temperture, though the wind was pretty strong and chilly. After a good warm up I lined up at the start not getting a good start position. On the start it was quite a struggle to get around a few guys and had to sprint to chase the rest of the field, nearly bailing on the first left hand corner in the process.
My legs really weren't feeling great so I kept to myself finding a steady pace just behind the main front bunch. My legs just never wanted to warm up and it was really frustrating to have to hold back on the first 15/20km. But soon enough I started to feel great and pushed hard on first really tough climb,and the extremely windy piece of road where I was able to pick up 10 places. I was really getting into a good rthym when i made stupid error and missed judged a loose corner at the bottom of a decent and took a really bad bail. But got up and pushed through and caught back my position.
I manged to finish 5 junior and 41 overall ( not a good result). I really need to find out whats making my legs take so long to warm up. But this result should push me up into second place in the Roag series.
