Comments:

This race is not ranked. I think overall I did well considering the conditions, I managed to ride about 21 M with two other guys so we could draft a bit. The leaves on the ground made cornering and breaking very tricky
What would you do differently?:

Need more experience to ride in these types of conditions
Post race
Warm down:

Nothing just got out of my wet clothes, ate something and drove home - knees hurt a bit.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The conditions

Event comments:

I think the rain put a damper on things, otherwise this is a lovely course - it is not flat and has some nice rolling hills
