DW - all I can say is my solo attack @ CD seems to have taken its toll on my legs  ::) - the outcome @ Blackhill on Saturday was less than pleasing - the pace was a bot quick for my liking and I stupidly thought "these guys will destroy themselves and me, I'll wait for B grade".  I was not entirely unhappy when I detected a slow leak in my rear tyre, but was disappointed when it was getting too flat to warrant getting on to the back of the A/B bunch when they passed me.

So, for the most part C grade dewtroyed itself but the small number that were left rode hard, forming the winning bunch. A good demonstration of their fitness. The combined A/B bunch seemed a little disorganised but that should not detract at all from the guys who drove C grade hard.

The shortened Blackhill course is a ripper, with almost no place for rest and, strangely, tougher than the normal BH course for - cough cough - those who excel at descending, if you know what I mean.
Well, no merger so far....
