Rotsvas MTB challenge. Good turn out at the event of over 100 riders, but only 43 finishers... this is one tough race... 2 laps of of the super technical route. The lap is about 1k longer than the running route from yesterday. Time trial starts in 15s intervals, as the races starts on a single track. I started about 15th place, but was soon passed by a few faster guys. I settled into a position midway through the 1st lap, and just kept going. Nothing spectacular at all, just consistent. Took a bit of strain on the 2nd lap, but endurance slowly kicked in to pull me to the finish. Lap 1 in 1:00:13 and lap 2 in 1:03:07. Ended 25th. Need to up my technical riding and just riding in general... Really enjoyable weekend of racing, and so well organised.
