That was brutal, more mud than a cx race and more mud related issues too, last two laps were deadly affected by clogging, my last lap was 7 minutes slower than the others as I kept dropping chain and having to stop and clear the bike. I enjoyed the course and was good to be racing again but didn’t have the race I wanted, someone barged into me overtaking at the bottom of the first climb, causing me to stall, I couldn’t get going and had to run/walk up pushing watching riders stream past me. Also realised my technical prowess had dropped after not riding the mtb properly in a long time. Wanted to get into top 15 (BC points) but was no where near.
Still enjoyed the day, good course, good venue and a good vibe, will aim to come down for the national in April.
