Over halfway into the series and things are starting to settle down, the natural program of sleeping, eating, riding, eating, riding, eating, eating, sleeping is really setting in. Can't say its to different from uni life though. With riding twice a day we seem to be accumilating a lot of washing, some might even say more than alot. So the morning was spent wondering around Geelong looking for a solution to this problem before it magnifies even more.
Crashes were the play of the day, with all 3 races halted with a crash on the corner number one involving Baden Cooke in the mens and Megan Dunne in the womens. This worked out good for some people who were dangling off the back struggling, gave them a chance to reposition at the restart. Unfortunately I was sitting 4th wheel in a break of 8 with a small avdantage over the peloton at the time of the crash, which pull us back to the bunch and had us jostling for the front row on the restart.
Eventually it was not meant to be, bad luck continued with a dropped chain which resulted in a drop off the back and a semi-failed madison handsling to Chris who got caught out by my mishap. Lach was the start performer for us, with only 25 finishing he cross the line in a comfortable 15th.
Today is in Portalington, hopefully some luck will come my way eventually, around nationals would be good.
