mtbo austria now

---

race day one in freistadt is over....finished 11 th out of 13 which was good but btter was that my time was within 5mins of 7th which was about 7 mins behind first..7th was achievable but for 3 errors. 2moro is long distance..heat wasnt as bad as it thought as trees kept temp down. Ride there knackered me tho..it was 4km out of town up big hill in 35 degrees of heat..it is now 6pm and its still 33.

Hydrating heaps and now its off to dinner then early to bed as race 2 is 10.45am star so brekky iois at 7.30..>I rescheduled it from 8am!

Organisation at event was good..with drinks and cakes afterwards..I had 2 sticky things..very nice!..and austrian music playing..hum pa pa....

Smoking is not banned here so eating out is a challlenge..as is sitting in internet cafe currently with chain smoking women.
