Leicestershire RC 50 - 26th June 2021 - nr Newark

 5th Overall; 4th Vet & 1st Standard

Optimistic after the mid week Club race at Ranskill, but this was a true test....with some of the guys who have beaten me or been closer than normal recently on the startsheet....downside was there was a rather healthy NE wind, meaning a tough return headwind for 13 miles, so a fast time was unlikely. Bit annoying too, my power meter failed before the race, so rode it rather "blind" I guess (I blame cheap batteries from IKEA)....anyhow finished in a very similar time as my other two races on there this last few weeks, but a better ride because of that wind? Well, I think so, as a few riders behind me that I was hoping for, but pal Ian G took a good minute out of me...although Ian is quality, and can turn out a cracking ride on his day...so inconclusive, but I'm sure in the correct direction! 😎
