So I completed my first ever event

Wasn't quite sure what to expect but knew that I would be able to complete it. Just made sure the bike was in good working order, ate well on the lead up and most importantly for me didn't overdo it doing other exercise leading up to it i.e. no spin classes and leg weights!!

As for the race I started in a group with Bernd, Craig, and Andy Bloot who of course left me standing on the first straight. And I also got passed by an awful lot of girls near the start! "Don't worry" I told myself they're all fit...........and can ride a bit too!!!
