Did the 65km B grade Toowoomba Club Race at Boodua today. It was a nearly flat 21 km course that was very windy and with a bit of drizzling rain and 25 starters. There was a big split in the cross wind at 15 km (that I missed, daydreaming) where 6 got off the front. I managed to get across to them on my own pretty comfortably. The 7 in the break became 5 before long. I had a go by myself at 21 km to go, hoping for some company, but it didn't come and I didn't have the legs to go solo. We all stayed together until a rider attacked up a hill about 500 m from the finish and he stayed away. I managed to win the gallop for 2nd. I'm overall very happy with today. I felt pretty strong most of the way and when I think that just two short months ago I couldn't even finish a B grade criterium, I have to consider this a big improvement.
