Good feeling in the road race

160806_riostr

The knee held for three hours and my form is good. That is the short version of my personal conclusions from yesterday. And of course we presented ourselves as a team well.

Our tactics worked out. In the beginning I wanted to help Simon get into a group, by making the race fast, and then I kept Emanuel out of the wind until I abandoned the race. Simon presented himself and the team really well, was in the six-man lead group which marked the race for a long time, and then Emanuel came in with a great 14th place finish. We can be satisfied.

By the way, that the was the first road race since his time as a junior for Maximilian Levy, who is actually a track rider. It was pretty funny to see him as a hefty sprinters standing between us skinny road riders, and then riding with us. We had to help him with some things, because he is simply not familiar with things that are natural for us, like signing in. But I think it was a great experience for him and it was also entertaining for us. Things will get serious for him in the next days. The 33 kilometers he rode yesterday were only training in a prominent group ;-)
