Sadly, there was no loot to be had - all you get for being the "2010 CD D grade Road Champion" is a nice medal (thankyou) and the limited bragging rights that come with that.
I did have a few of my club mates telling what happened, and what they did for me, back in the bunch, which I was not aware of but nonetheless grateful, as it allowed me to fluke a win. See, if you fail on pathetic breakaways and getb dropped every alternate week people just leave you sitting out there expecting you to fail, and one race in 20,000 you can catch them out. I wonder if I have some French heritage....
It takes years of practised physical collapse and being dropped to lull them in to that belief. See, I play the long game...
Shalom
