Macclesfield Wheelers Evening Road Race Siddington 2013

The race was held over at the Siddington circuit starting from Lower Withington.
Dress code was wet weather as the rain did not stop and made for a cautious - from my point of view - race. Concentration on keeping safe on a busy circuit and taking caution around the corners. The 2 and half laps were all driven at a pace and it was not a race for me wanting to do much. The surges that went were actually quite hard. The end of the first lap was the drag uphill towards Siddington. Badly positioned I rode from the back to the front of the bunch to keep out of trouble as riders faltered up this particular 'power' section.
Second time around got a better position at the bottom of the drag but I wasnt feeling free flowing enough to make any proper attack for the final lap and settled back in again .

YUK! Do we look so happy!!  Not!  :-)
