2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted March 23, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Leg breaker. From the 5 mile point. Field of 60, strong wind, hilly course and lots of young legs coming through from the track influence added together to make it sore. I think Andy and Colin suffered early on from the many accelerations every time the road went up. I hung on to about 25 mile point by which time I had dipped into the red at least 4 times. Then the classic of you feel just fine one minute, a hill appears and you have to go full gas but everyone seems to be struggling so thats ok, then the man with the mallet runs out from behind the hedge and gives you a swift one to the legs. Got into two or three different groups after that and finished well gubbed in P34 at 12 mins. Richard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin McPhee Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 As soon as the flag came in on the climb up from the bridge the pace ramped up to sizzling I think the ave speed for first five miles was bout 25 mph and it wasn't flat. Poor position going into thankerton had me measuring my effort carefully so as to prepare for what was to come but unfortunately found it impossible to move up on this narrow stretch. On the wooded climb out of thankerton my legs said no thanks and that was me however joined up with Andy a little further on and we two upped the rest of the course. Must remember the climb begins before the climb next time and need to be positioned on any narrow winding sections of road where the bunch gets strung out. Chapeau Paul for sticking it out. A tough start to the season but things can only get better Richard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions thejanullrichdietplan Posted March 23, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Well done Had a look at the route profile earlier and there doesnt seem to have been any flat at all - made even harder with it being a 2/3/4 field i imagine!
