Round Mount Taranaki

On Saturday was round mount taranaki cycle classic. It was 150km and with only 35ish in the premier race it was always going to be a hard race. Attacks were going thick and fast early on and after 5km 6 of us escaped the peloton. This was the break to be in as the gap went out to 6minutes and was never going to come back. Unfortunately i ran out of legs after 106km. 40km of flast flat and McCauleys never ending attacks didnt help either. Ended up 12th after the 2nd bunch came flying past me with 10km to go.

Bodysol Junior Team Member Maik Wesink from Holland rode well to finish 8th and 1st Junior in the race. A good first win of the season for Bodysol!!!

I have the tour of wellington starting tomorrow so will be a good chance to test the legs before getting stuck into the european programme.
