GP of Gloucester, M40+- day 2
Start was slightly worse than yesterday due to crowding but at the first turn I stayed to the outside and passed a huge pack as they bottled up on the inside. That put me on the inside for the next turn which I made it through cleanly so overall pretty good position leading towards the first dismounts.
From there most of the race was similar to the day before. Waiting on people in the turns, fighting to stay with people on the straights. Took a nice fall on a lazy re-mount on the last lap, lost 3 spots there unfortunately.
Legs strangely felt a little better than the day before but I can tell I did something over the weekend right now. Good timing for an easy week.

GP of Gloucester CX, Masters 40+
For this series they start us with the 17-18 Juniors but behind them. Combined with my Crossresults.com handicap I was about 60th in the corral so the first lap is basically mayhem. Compounding that was the rain which started before our start and picked up as we went. I was much faster than those around me cornering but they were faster in the straights so passing someone and staying ahead of them proved challenging. Fortunately I was at least able to stay ahead of the big pack just behind me and finished 29th. Legs didn’t feel great. Back for more tomorrow.
