Re: Beaumont Road Criterium

my report would be much the same as Mikes. Except i started to contest the sprint then ran out of juice. its hard work having to sprint out of every turn around for 200 metre's. was a great day out and the numbers were fantastic. http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/7339/25810384277227725520477.jpg http...

I think we rode quite well as a team in C grade. When John and James were OTF Tim rode a nice false tempo on the front for a while and i went with a with a guy that tried to bridge to James. The course was beautiful it was so smooth and you didn't need to break for any of the corners. I think the av...
