Alpes

So I've been a bit busy lately with training and racing. I will try and think back to a week or so ago, I had an Elite National called Charvieu chavagneux it was a super fast flat course, which i knew would suit me if I played my cards right.

There was a really strong line up for the race, the pace started high seeing it was bastille day and never let up.

The good break went within a couple of laps. but lucky for me not all the teams were represented up front. So it got dragged back eventually. As that was going on I made my way to the front and a split went off the front and that was it.... full noise to the end and I had a dig with 2km to go but got bought back then rolled 8th in the sprint.

After this was a race on Sunday... I recovered really well and went on the attack straight away. I was loving the wet conditions and dropping everyone through the corners. Once the good break went I bridged across and it looked to be solid until we were caught with less than 1k to go, I stayed well positioned to take 7th.

After this I have been in the Alpes (near Braincon) training and relaxing and also getting in a bit of Tour action. I also had a Nocturne crit in Albertville, but was really lacking energy and power for some reason (maybe the altitude training im not sure). So I decided to pull the pin only 50mins in.

So that is all really, just watched the TT at Le Tour was pretty exciting!
