Good to meet you @andyp.
I too managed tenth in the seniors. Crashed on an innocuous uphill corner after the big root and dropped my chain which cost me 30 seconds and (perhaps) two places. Probably running too much pressure in my tyres but I wanted to avoid any tyre squirm on those fast paved corners.
Happy Valley next week, which I haven't ridden before, but from youtube looks to be a pretty boring grass criterium.
