>Last night it was back to the Tuesday crits, this week courtesy of the Archer RC.
A compact field of 4th cats lined up on a breezy night. The start was agreeably relaxed but the race soon warmed up with plenty of attacks and the bunch fragmenting at times. I had a couple of goes at the front and had to make a big effort to get back on mid-race.
I seem to get stronger as the race progresses. That said, I was tailed off in the sprint. A good race for me – the third in three days. Rest day today.
