rain, and more rain

15 Feb

it was raining at the start today,

then by the time it was really go time 100km into the race, the rain became more rain, and once up Howell mountain things mystically imploded. riders disappearing into the mist, haze.

some of the “we” narrowly missed the first group. then we tried to bring it back together. but the day the racing the conditions combined  and were much.

disappointment.

but mancebo, hearing that he big-ringed howell mountain, appeared to have deserved  the win todoay. apparently.

i was told to get in or make the breakaway move today.

on staight road, and an amp’ed scene, i didnt think the first flyer would have been let go. i foresaw more attacking, more teams thinking the same.

but, wrong.

but, we need to aim higher than “just getting inthe breakaway”. ..

today was tough,

there was no way around it.
