Legs Still Aching

My legs are still really sore from Wednesday so I have decided not not practice today to rest up for tomorrow and go to the race with fresher legs. I am going to take ibuprofen today to get rid of the last bit of soreness as well.

Looking forwards to tomorrow as there are only 4 in my age group again and there is only one fast rider so I think I should be able to finish 2nd in my age group tomorrow if I have a really good day then 1st again.

My only real worry is the second jump as I can't get over it very well and the fast guy can jump it so he isn't loosing any speed and I will loose a lot unless I can figure it out.

On the plus side the track is really narrow so if I can get out in front I can hold off the passed a bit easier as there is not a lot of room for people to pass. I am more confident as I was gating really well on Tuesday night so we will see. It looks like there will be 20+ riders this weekend which is more than last weekend and there are some really fast riders that weren't there last week so I don't know where I will come but I don't think I will get into the A final again but we will see.

The bikes are cleaned and packed in the car ready for tomorrow.


I have also bought some of the photos from the official photographer from last weekend.

From my first heat.



From my final where I won my first ever regional final 😀. Looking at the pictures I won pretty comfortably as there was no one near me from the second straight onwards.
