2023 Subscriptions PaulL Posted February 7, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 A perfect day for CX and about nothing else... A seemingly simple course degraded quickly leading to another mudfest. Only myself and Davie Borland this week. Davie had a great start and was in the top 5 for a few laps but as the course degraded into a swamp his tyre choice didn't cope well and he lost some places. After the last couple of races of falling apart in the final two laps I tried to ride conservatively and keep on eye on my HR. it worked, I wasn't absolutely gubbed by the end but finished in my worse placing so far... so back to hammering it at the start and chuck the garmin in the back pocket. A great muddy day on the bike, still a few races left if anyone would like to try it out!

DavieB Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Weather was totally miserable during the warm up but very tolerable for racing. Me and Paul parked ourselves on the front row of the grid and though I was 4th into the 1st corner and maintained this for 3 or so laps, tyres became totally useless and my running is not up to scratch to compensate. Tyre plan already formulated for next year. Well done Paul for another good outing. David C hope the pub was warm and dry! alexb, DavidC, PaulL and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
