Two for two with podiums at my most recent bike events and it feels good to be getting back into the swing of racing!
First up was some track fun with @hhvwomen League over the weekend, kicked off by a flying 200, followed by a scratch race, individual pursuit and points race. The first few events were pretty solid (I even enjoyed the pursuit!), before absolutely blowing up in the points race. Despite that, I still managed to be the 3rd highest league points scorer on the night and move up to 3rd in the As after two rounds of the league
Then, a trip to Hillingdon on Tuesday for some crit racing. True to form, I lurked at/off the back, working way harder than I needed to, but I did actually try to move up in the bunch this time when I felt comfortable. Making it to the last lap was a struggle, but a cheeky sprint up the inside (which tbh took me by surprise) bagged me the win!
I still massively struggle with nerves despite having raced for a few years, so I don't find I have much confidence when I'm going into a race, especially after the end of last season. So I'm really trying to build that up and this has been a massive boost.
Up next: more track racing to get stuck into and more pursuits to enjoy! Yes, I am weird, deal with it.
