Palace last night was a baptism of fire - did not get a chance to ride the course pre-start as Ollie was racing in the juniors. As such, going into the bottom blind corner first time round I was far too cautious and had no speed coming out. Inevitable result - I got dropped going up the hill. Ended up in group of 6 shortly thereafter and spent about a third of the time on the front (3 workers; 3 shirkers). A good technical circuit and lots of fun. Hopefully I'll be better prepared next week.
