London league.

I did London league cross today at Lea Valleys Gunpowder park. It was a relatively cool day and was sloggy, which suits me. I ran my bike in a way that i thought was good for the conditions; 12-25 block, on a 32 grifo, with a wolber deeper profile rim on the front, which had a 30 grifo to cut throught the mud and help steering. It was all going well, i lead for most of the first lap until we hit a climb out the back of the park, which completely sapped me, and i fell back to 6th. Trying to regain places, i feel on a corner and had to punch me levers bck straight which cost precious time, but i got back on and chased my way to 5th. Not a bad result considering im a first year, but it is a result i know i could have improved on. Anyway, its been a good prep for Koksijde next weekend....
