Bloody weather - we've had windy races and rainy races. This was the first of the year to combine both. Still, usual handicap and start group on my least favourite course. We trundled off well, cathching Caveman and colleague from the 8 1/2 minute group. The it all fell apart. I'm no road racing expert but surely everyone knows how through and off works?
I got dropped on the 3rd lap climb to the finish but was fortunate enough to be hoovered up by Gregg who appeared to be on a mission. Having dragged me back to the group, he towed the group along for a mile or so then rode away from all of us!
Dropped again on lap 4 climb and hurt myself trying to get back on. With a desperate all out sprint I grabbed the last mans wheel and then couldn't do any more. I spent the remainder of the lap with them in view but not getting any closer.
Quite pleased with the race - going quite well for Spring. Can't wait for the TT's to start. No hiding any more!
