Highlight of the year was undoubltably CityCross, followed by the other CityCross. Either or.. the first one at Shroggs tip because I shocked myself doing reasonably well, and the second one because it was just bloody brilliant.
I dabbled with injury, where my lower back and psoas have played up, and my left knee has caused me concern on two occasions. In both cases, a bit of rest, stretching and core work have kept anything cronic at bay.( for now at least)
Strava has been a revelation, and I have become a total Strava whore, managing to claim 65 KOMs in all. Not bad for a duffer like me in such a hotly contested area.
3415 miles 240 hours in total, breaking 5000Km with virtually all rides done at lunchtimes ( only one long one in December)
Racing went better than I could have imagined. After CityCross in March was the first racein 15 years, I manged to et consistant top tens in the Summer season.
Wessex league got off to a slow start and I missed a fair few races due to Roller Racing commitments. But I managed to surpass my season Goal of coming top half of a race. Hopefully I can build on this and look forward to the next season.
Coolest thing I have bought all year:.. my foam roller.Hurts like hell, but very effective.
Biggest waste: second hand Carbon Tubs.. only one race. then the freewheel imploded.. load of bollocks and they are totally shit braking in the wet.
