I'm just kicking myself now for not having a headset, knowing that all of Team Cyclechat would have heard my cries for help and come back to tow me up to 8th place in that first race.
:sad:
Yeah it would maybe have helped as we were never sure if you had a problem or just needed a hand - would obviously have been silly to sacrifice a rider to drop back to help you if it wasn't going to make a difference anyway.

Doesn't matter though - bask in the glory of having competed and won bronze! We'll be back better and stronger next time!

Thanks Breedon for setting up CG2, i wasn't going to do it again until next week but after Geoff posted, I think you should all do Stage 2 of the Nations Cup as a tribute to the Cyclechat (UK) Team... what choice did i have (especially as i mis-read it as CG2) :crazy: still, 17 seconds gain is better than loss

I struggled with that today :shy: my ghost was quicker than me, although I was up front with berty bassett for all of 7 seconds ^_^ i could put in my excuses but don't want to infringe on bobinski's copyright.

Breedon I grant you a licence on this occasion only - though I would have thought you might show greater respect for your colleagues today who have buried themselves today for yours and my entertainment and avoid ANY excuse whatsoever. :rolleyes:
:tongue:

Where was your jet lag? It didn't seem to slow you down.

I thought about our valant riders when doing the course i was slightly embarrassed about my performance to say the least

I thought the same thing. The first half of the ride felt like I was riding through mud. I got off to see what was causing the problem. I felt like quitting then thought about the dudes doing 3 back to back rides going all out and decided I better finish.

Having a chat with Tenerife organisers, they sometimes ride with the pro's and it's true whilst climbing, they can have heart rates of 120-130bpm whilst our chaps were 160bpm
