6TH OVERALL; 1ST ON STANDARD
So some midweek gratutitous time chasing in deepest Cambridgeshire - although I did visit friends fairly nearby too! But not to be, the locals post race, stating that a NNW wind is the worst possible, as head wind out, and no help back (and felt like a headwind at times). Also was very sticky...finished though in 6th place, and beating Richard Oakes for the first time on "standard"....actual time 20-17....so not bad....😜
Interesting on warm up on rollers, there was a rocking on the front end and an associated squeaking 🤷♂️....at start of race, I felt that the steering was attempting to go slightly left and right...and at one point sat up....decided it was a cross wind (although for my weight it has to be super strong for that to happen)....anyhow, continued....but later back in Sheffield, discovered that the bolts from the fork were loose attached to the cockpit FFS!!! Could've been a disaster.... 🤯
