24 and 25/04

Had two flat races this weekend both cat 2 races.
The first race was on saturday in swiss and was 4 laps of 30km it had a few rollers in it but nothing to hard. The hole race was fast slow fast slow and really surgy, which caused a few crashes but most were at the back so didnt really affect me. The crash i had earlier on in the week still had its affect on me as my legs just felt really stiff and sluggish especially my hip and knee so wasnt feeling the best through out the race. I had a few attacks to try get in the break but nothing seemed to stay away. But on the third lap my team mate kieran got in the break which managed to stay till the end with kieran getting 2nd, I just finished mid bunch about 30th.
2nd race was pretty much same sort of thing as the first mostly flat with a few rollers and a lap course of 90km. Again i felt average and didnt get in the break but keiran got in it again with another team mate alex. In the end Alex got 3rd kieran got 10th and i finished mid bunch again.
So average weekend of racing, but on the bright side it was really good weather and atleast i could still race after my crash during the week.

  1. Hi Sam, I'm glad you are cycling again after the crash. I must say I was very shocked when I opened your page and saw the picture. It looked really bad. I can amagine you were very sore, did somebody give any massages or physio or something? Or is that not done in your kind of sport? Do you get on the bike everyday? How is the cooking coming along? How does the apartment look these days...... Any socialising going on during the week? Karin
