We arrived on Wednesday and rode the course on Thursday. The course had one super steep climb and some rocky sections, it was a lot more technical than what everyone had told themselves.
The day before the race i crash during my warm down and hurt my shoulder badly which meant that on the race day riding downhill was extremely painful and slow.
On the start line I was very nervous and rightfully so. With a dropped chain in the start i had some catching up to do. I caught the lead group again and up the climbs I was going fast and felt good, but down the hills I was painfully slow.
I fought my best and ended up coming in second. Not what I wanted but hats off to Patrick Belton who rode away from me to win 3 minutes ahead.
