This was not an especially good day. Fourteen of us lined up in a combined Elite A / Elite B / Masters A and nine were from the same club (Moreton Bay). It was a hot day (about 37 degrees on the track at Glenvale) which made conditions testing. The race was one hour plus two laps.
I tried to be fairly active early on, including one very big dig to get across to a two man break that was already down the road. The Moreton Bay boys were pretty clear that they weren't working with anyone except their own, so that didn't stick. I tried to stay active, but when the winning break went and I wasn't in it, it has hard to stay on task. I blew to pieces at about 40 minutes and dropped back to tap it out on my own.
I was handed an ice pack at this point which I threw on my back. I was actually quite shocked at the difference it made. I reckon my heart rate dropped by between 8 - 10 bpm almost immediately. So I tapped it out with my bag on my back, all the way to the end. Not quite sure where I finished.
