Decent start to race, lost 20 seconds 4-5. 30 seconds 16-17. very twisty and turny, hesitating quite a bit. had to come back on myself a few times loosing time, caught angus up and got a bit distracted and lost my flow then. good result...definate improvements in sprint discipline, still need to get better though.
