Doncaster Wheelers Autumn RR 19/9

[iandv]

A very wet race, it never stopped raining so the spray and surface water made it a hard race. I tried to stay at the front and get in a break but it never came off, one guy got away on his own but he was always going to get reeled in. The last lap was the usual rough and tumble, I had to fight for a decent position into the last corner and I didn't get a clear sprint up the hill but managed to come round for 5th. This should be enough to get my 3rd cat licence which was a big objective for the season. I was happy with the result. prizes were only given to the first 3 which was a bit odd but it's not about the money (although £100 for first place would have been ok)

I have entered the Lincoln Eagle RR on 3rd October, not sure if I'll ride or not - it's been a long season.
