Great Milton Road race

Last weekend the 5th of April i raced the Great Milton Road Race as i said in my previous post i had every intention to attack from the drop of the flag and that is precisely what i did.

The flag went in and i went i was joined by a couple of riders but we where soon closed down these antics went on for a good half a lap untill it settled down.
The problem with Great Milton is the course isnt flat enough to deter the bunch from chasing so to be honest the like minded riders such as myself knew that we werent gonna get away.

Had a move on the 2nd lap that got about 20 seconds but with 5 km to go some guy clipped off when we got caught and the fucking bunch didnt chase him ironically he won......piss!!

Didnt race this weekend chose instead to do an hours tempo Saturday and 4.5 hours in the Cotswold hills today proper hilly taking in Broadway hill (bastard) loads and loads of hills in an around the cotswolds Saintbury hill (fucking bastard!!) was the toughest of the day but by the time myself and Calvin got back to Banbury we had done around 80 miles and were suitably knackered!!

New bike.

Here it is the new beast.



Having only ridden it for 4 hours i can say it is a real treat climbs beautifly cos it only weighs 6.9kgs.

Racing on it this weekend so full report to follow!
