Was faffing around and missed the start so nearly a complete disaster!

Great to have you in the team @mjd1988 !

I didn't have the nerve to try and contests the sprints - just hung on really! But pleasantly surprised with my time up the KOM and final position. Well, I was until Michael pointed out everyone else probably wasn't trying because it was only the prologue

@alex_cycles - downside of watching your race this morning is that you made it look much easier than it actually was

Haha I was trying to rationalise how I stayed with the group rather than bring you down 😂 I had looked at the 20min power list beforehand and I think I was third last so was pleasantly surprised

Sorry about that. I had an unprecendented two days off Sunday and Monday and I'm fairly near the top of my category, so it perhaps doesn't kill me to hold on as much as if I was nearer the bottom. (That said, my IF was 96% for the race, so I was pushing quite hard.)

I did take a whole second off my PR for the Yorkshire sprint FTS though. But I had a lovely pack to draft through. (Check out the draft numbers during the sprint - top right)

Does anybody compete in the Zwift Games ? Five new courses this year, I rode the ZG25 Queen stage this morning, all I can say is bring your A game, I will not be entering this one.

I was 14th in cat B in that last year. Will give it a pass this time around, on account of not enough sleep and lots of small illnesses, but if there's a new route badge I'll give it a go
