What an amazing ride/race. Definitely an inspiration to try some more exotic races. There were thousands of locals all along the 109km route shouting encouragement, made me feel like a proper racer.
As it was my first time at this race my seeding was low so we started way back, i have definitely never overtaken so many people in one ride! It turned out to be pretty much a time trial with very little sharing of work at the front of any of the groups we caught up to or created.
Here are a few pictures of the route, the wind and the riders.
taken from the route when we pre-drove it, on the day it was perfect sunshine.
View on to the finish
Race day, there was certainly a lot of wind
