Not Ranked
Roushac,
Hi mate,
Yes, it was a race with groups setting off at 3 minute intervals to avoid congestion on corners particularly around the corners heading back to the finish line. A mix of hills and flat runs into the wind..
We ran at 35 - 40km/h average (20 -25mph roughly) with strong headwinds and some rain. I basically let a rider get away as I thought the bunch was turning over and he attacked and left me caught inside.
I managed to get out and attempted to chase him down, but did not have the legs. We finished at 63km/h ( roughly 35mph) and I did not have the ability to lift that extra.
Yes cadel is a favorite and his web site has my old '66 Mustang on it - from my gallery. Check out the 'real cadel" and hit the hamburgers on his barbeque.

Take care
Bernie
