Cyclocross season opener in Braunschweig at the 1.10.11

While we had wonderful weather conditions with temperatures higher than 20degrees,we travelled to Braunschweig-Lehndorf to participate at the Panther-Cup, a cross-race. It was quite weird, because normally you got other conditions on a cross-race, wet and cold, instead of today dusty and warm. According to this, the bike splits were really fast and the trees went by really fast.


Soon after the start I rode on the 4th place, just to change it for a short time with the 3rd. All in front was Fabin B., who rode a lonely race in the front, followed by a group of three, with Sven Kuschla,Sascha Berger and myself.


Normally I got an aversion against the 4th place, but with this cast of characters and the small gaps between the 2nd and the 3rd, I´m quite satisfied with my result, because I haven´t expected it. Now it´s time for the cross-season to start.
Special thanks to Helmut Zamponi for the pictures.

Greetings,

Thomas Z.
