Racing!

Well, went for my second criterium race on the weekend out at Nundah. Awesome fun. I think I could get a bit of a taste for it!
Results were in line with expectations. I had hoped to race "C" grade, but they bumped me to "B" grade. Plan at this point was to hold on until the end, which is exactly what happened, so really I was just making up numbers. It was a bit windy and speeds were around the 48km/h mark the whole 50 mins, so the legs and lungs ended up getting a pretty solid session. Ned had a pretty solid outing though sitting with the break-away for most of the race.
Looks like another race this weekend too, this time out at Murrarie. Easier course I reckon, although with a minor increase in profile - Nundah is pretty much dead flat. Numbers will probably be down a touch on last weekend so it probably won't be as fast. Guess I will find out and hang on again. Hopefully get busy and whack a couple of pics in the gallery later this week.
