That was a good clean race, only saw a few people tussling (pointlessly) but no crashes and lots of good communication.
Positioning is key going into the final few laps, as is not drinking scotch!
The wheeler who attacked early and won was handy too ;)
There is a bunch of photos also, the sprint ones are ace!

I'm quickly learning the points come down to positioning and ability to spot/exploit gaps in the last couple laps rather than all out fitness.
Finally managed to get my positioning a bit better in the last two laps and came home with some points (that's me in the fluoro gloves in the middle).

First of Imperial series crit yesterday .. SO MUCH FUCKING FUN!!
Things learned:
Work on technique; dont be afraid to push through the bunch
You done really need to obsess over power/FTP as much as how to conserve it and use it right
Attack
Dont drink half a bottle of scotch the night before
