Breakaway

Yesterday's race was great fun and I learned a few more lessons. At both races I have been able to power away on the climbs but I need to maintain my pace a little better to make a break stick.

I went out for a 100km recovery ride this morning so that I can continue my Metric Century Challenge statistics but also to ponder over how I can improve my racing. I need to stay closer to the front and use some tactics to either make a breakaway stick or put me in a better position to sprint for the finish.

This is the view I'd like the other competitors to see more of...my derrier!

  1. How is riding 100km ever considered a recovery ride? :)

    I've enjoyed reading your race reports. Good luck in your upcoming races.

  3. I'm concentrating on time trials again this season, but might have a go at a Mallory Park circuit race some time. Are the MK Bowl races running all season?
