Western Province Road Champs
August 14th, 2005Rode WP Champs today - lasted 2 laps because of some bad team communication. We had Francois up the road in an early break so we were sitting back letting the other teams do the work. Until we saw Francois coming back to the bunch on his own.
That meant that Marco and I moved up to the front, with a little help from the STE guys. But we did most of the work for at least 10k’s. Which provided Virgin Active with the perfect opportunity to attack when we hit a bit of a rise. Needless to say myself, Marco and Francois were all shelled out the back.
I rode the third lap as a warmdown. Overall though I was pretty happy, since I’d ridden a hard 4 1/2 hour ride in the rain the day before, and the legs weren’t feeling at all bad.

So it turns out the there’s just team captain Robby, along with a whole bunch of Virgin Active guys, together at the end.
And guess who wins? Robby of course! Virgin Active must feel real frustrated sometimes!
