Long season is almost coming to an end

16 September 2010

I did not get to race the national 12hr due to a family loss and just slipped into the family holiday in France taking the bike with me. This was a much needed break in the sun with my family and social cycling in the Pyrenees.

I raced a 25mile tt on my return to open my lungs and get my legs fired up once more, finishing in the top 10.

I followed this with a 50mile tt in Derbyshire in terrible wind and rain which felt more like autumn than summer. I finished 1hr 57min slightly off my normal pace but considering the weather was not too bad at all.

This weekend will be my final race of the season - 50mile tt in Thirsk, North Yorkshire which I hope to finish the season off with a PB. One last blast of sun, dry warm weather is surely not a lot to ask for?
