| Started with scratch group of 5 riders. A little unsure of form having not raced for three weeks. Dropped Mark2 by the top of the 3 sisters and Nick just before we caught block (1.5 minutes) coming out of Uriarra crossing. Used up block for 5km before they stopped working (shat). Ramped up the pace just after the homestead, looked around, less than 10 left. Top of first climb Mark1, Skip and Dukes left. Top second climb Dukes barely hanging on, talked decided to wait for him. End of bitumen Dukes gone, 3 left 6 minutes in arrears. Started chasing down the limit riders free of baggage, reeling in everybody quickly over the climbs. Skip attacked at the last climb before the homestead, I followed, Mark not. Two left. We caught Frost and Culnane, they did a few turns to the bottom of the 3 sisters. Skip and I just looking at each other over the three sisters. By second sister we had reeled everybody in, still looking at each other. Skip applied the pressure every climb. Me barely hanging on, losing contact then time trialing to get back on. Final long drag snapped with 3km to go. Nothing left in the tank. Sped down the hill but rolled up to the finish line totally spent. |

Start again with a smile, hope things can only get better. |
