When i took a look out of my window early in the morning at 5°´clock,
I just wanted to get back to my bed. It was raining cats and dogs,
and under this conditions to ride 77,8km thru the Harz, could
be very sustained. And it was like that.
Only two minutes after the start, you were already soaked up,
but while you are in fever, you doesn´t remark that. The start
went quiet well for me, and there have been lots of position fighting
in the first minutes even on such a long contest like this one.
Later it became more quietly, no wonder why, because we lost our
way. Fast turn around and finishing the race on the 4th place
with a few chain problems. After the race, I had to buy a new
chain and braking pedals, it was an expensive fun to race in such
a rain.
And for the next weekend I´m really looking forward to end up
on the podium again after two times hitting the 4th, wait´n see…
Greetings
