Karrasch on the podium, despite the sniffles.

33rd Frankfurt Bike Cross at the Bornheimer slope. 3rd place in the master division of the German Cup 2007

Every year, the international cross elite meets up at the Bornheimer slope in Frankfurt. Of course, I had to be there. Suffering from a slight sniffle, I was the first to choose a starting position.




After an unusually good start, I was the second person onto the slopes, which were trickier than they looked, after days of rain. The fact that I started out riding down some of the sections others had to take on foot, didn't help for long. .



So, I slacked off in 2nd place for the whole race, with equal gaps in front and in back of me.



In the end, a biker from Luxembourg pushed his way past me, but 3rd place with a sick pass was still tolerable.
