Hi there all of you,
To all of you who did the Vasbyt and finished, well done you deserve your medal and certificate 8) ;D !!!
Roadster how did your race go?
Mine was one I'd rather forget, the start was good and my brother and myself was in a nice group going at a nice pace (about 35 cyclist) then after about 75 K's disaster struck :-[
My brother had a puncture and we lost about 15 minutes (we couldn't get the damn tire off the rim), but most importently we lost the group :-/
After 100 K's we had our refreshment and some ice cold refreshments (smoebody met us there)
When we got back on the road we had the wind from the front and after 120 K's I started cramping, after a brief stop we got going again but could'nt keep a good pace.
With about 7K's left I cramped so bad that I had to stop again and was about to give up, if it wasn't for my brother I would have waited for the cattle truck but we rubbed it out and just cruised the rest of the way to the finish. ;D
We finished in 7:48 :-X , BUT we finished

That is my sorry story of the day- next year I'll do the 53 K's!
To the organizers, well done it, the certificate made it worth it

Till next time
