prix de la municiplite de st claude

the race this weekend was on a hard little circuit of 3km that was mostly downhill with the rest uphill and the last 300m to the start/finish real steep uphill. id had a good good hard week of training so came into the race feeling pretty good. anyway the first few laps i just rolled around in the bunch not up to much sort of saving myself a bit, in that time a break got away of about 7 with 2 team mates up there so about half hay i decided i should probly try bridge across the gap was about a minute and 2 other guys came with me but one guy dropped his chain and got dropped so it was down to two of us it took us about 4 or 5 laps to get across and just as i got on i saw that kieran had gone solo from the main group and got across the gap in only 2 laps wich was pretty impressive.
so we had 4 guys in the front group we should have had this race in the bag. but when i got up to the front group with 4 laps to go no one told me that there was actually 1 guy up the road and our bunch was just pissing around and by the time i found out we had 2 laps to go and he had a big gap, so i got on the front to drive in the hope of catching this guy as but i was practically the only guy from my team wanting to work, everyone should have come through and chopped off with me and have kieran sitting in behind as he is our best sprinter and we would have probly caught the guy. so pretty pissed off, keiran ended up 3rd and my two other team mates 4th and 5th with me at the back of the bunch in 9th after my hard work.
