So my computer decided to stop working for me over a week ago and because its the summer holidays in france the repair shop has been extremly slow and i still havent got it back yet so not ideal.
In the time iv had no computer iv had 5 races and the first 3 will be a pretty brief report as they arent very fresh in my memory.

Orchamps criterium
This was a local race on a thursday night was a 1.5km course with half of the course up hill and half downhill. the pace was on right from the start and i was really active trying to make the break unfortunatly after bridging up to some promising breaks, i missed the winning break so just rolled in with bunch. but i did win a sprint prime so got some euro.

prix du jura nord
Was a cat 1 race and part of the credit mutuel series and i was in the leaders jersey for leading cat 2 rider. was a pretty flat course, had a small hill which was big ring stuff. unfortunatley being in the jersey meant i was pretty well marked and i was feeling crap for most the race so i didnt make the winning break (again). so got no points for the series and lost the jersey by 1 point i think.

PRIX DE LA GRENETTE
this was a midweek race on the national french holiday basteille day. and this race was part of another series and turns i was leeading this one aswell so had to wear a white leaders jersy. and same story as last race everytime i even thort of moving i had the whole bunch following so extremly annoying. and break got away, but i managed to win the bunch sprint and got 10th. and my team mate clement moved 1 point ahead of me on the series which was fine by me as it got me out of the jersey.

MONTEE DE LA RAMAZ
this race was really cool it was 14km uphill on a cat 1 climb from the tour de france this year, and there was writing all over the road the whole way up so was really cool to be racing over the same climb as all the pros. the race had 50odd starters but it thined out real quick to about 10 riders and for the first 8km there where a few attacks but nothing split the group up.
it wasnt until we reached a real part of the climb about 10 to 12 percent for a couple of kms i was in the front group of 5 untill i just lost contact when the eventual winner put in an acceleration near the end of the steep section, for the last 3kms it wasnt so steep so im pretty guttered i couldnt just hold on to the group over the top of the steep section. so i came in 5th.

PRIX DE DELLE
the 6th race in the credit mutuel series so had try get my cat 2 leaders jersey back.
was a really hard race was 120km over a 20km course with a 3km hill which was a big ring climb. tried pretty hard to make the early break but i missed it. the cmc team who had the cat 1 leaders jersey for the tour put up a good chase and the bunch got real close to catching the break and then on the third lap the bunch blew up on the hill with everyone strugling to stay at the front i made the front group of 25 and we were about 30seconds from the break and a couple of guys managed to bridge across, and then the chase just stopped it was like the cmc team just gave up. so that was race over. i ended up coming finishing in the bunch and was 23rd so managed to get my cat 2 leaders jersey back which was good.
