I can't believe how fast Doug, Steve and Sean were riding. Fucking rippers man... blistering pace for 50 miles with no let-up and I was dropped. Then picked up by Rob who was about 15 mins behind. Then dropped again. Probably would have been OK if I had gotten more than 4.5 hours sleep, hadn't eaten so much food and didn't forget to put my saddle down to the correct height...
Doug & co did it in 3' 55" while Rob did it in 4' 10" with me coming in a couple of minutes after Rob
What's gonna happen in this Darley Moor race on Saturday I dunno... I'll be happy if I don't get dropped TBH
