On a freezing cold damp Tuesday evening i returned to Croft motor circuit for another bash at bike racing. My legs were still sore from the 22 mile run on the Sunday and a 30 mile cycle race was starting to look tough. Sat in the saddle i didn't feel to bad but getting out of the saddle for for some more effort i certainly felt the muscles screaming for me to sit back down. I managed to finish in twelfth place but felt i could of been in the top 5 easy with good legs. After the race i was absolutely freezing and my thermal top didn't even have one drop of sweat on it. Compared to a running race this was about as hard as a steady run at the most with a couple of hard blasts of 20 seconds here and there. You can't beat a running race.
Back to some proper training now ready for next Tuesdays fell race.
