BVC Friday Racing


First race was a 30 lap Scratch race. Went out on a 51x15 (about 88"). Pace was not quite as bad as last week (A's had their own race tonight) but still found I was struggling to keep up. Gear too low and race to short...

Next was an Elimination, again, too small gear and was an early volunteer at the back when I couldn't find a hole...

Final was a 4x10 Points race. Moved up to 51x14 (about 93"). Felt much more comfortable. Took 2nd in the first sprint.  And did a good effort at the end... but unfortunately I didn't realize a small group had got off the front at the second last sprint... So I was sprinting for 5th... :-) But the bigger gear definitely felt more comfortable.
