DN2 Coupe de France, 2 and 3

Just a quick update to all those people out there reading this ramble.

Just got home at 1.30am, fresh from another hard windy day down in the south of France. (fun driving on the motorways!)

The race was really windy and had 1 main climb of around 1km length then 2km false flat and cross wind to the finish line in a village with a massive castle was pretty sweet.

Didn't get the best sleep at the F1 hotel in Toulouse with all the hookers making heaps of noise next door. So was a little sleepy, race was OK on the 5 big laps but the climb and drag to the finish was draining me. The 4th to last time up i got pinged off after the climb and game over. Another Dnf

I have been told from room mate Ki, that i was riding in the wind and being an idiot and if i had conserved more and ate more I would have been fine, so will defiantly keep that in mind for next races.

Also really disappointing at the moment with some of the team mates not committing 100 percent in the races. It really sucks for use riders that, just want to get racing and pull off results..........

The other Coupe de France up in Bourg didn't work out for me. As i put in way to much intensity through the week and had no PUNCH in the legs on race day.

Thats about it from me folks, enjoy this beautiful weather were have aye.
Ciao
