summer cup series race 2

the second round of n-duro summer series was held yesterday in stunning summer weather conditions, yeah it was slightly hot but we don't want to complain about a sunny day ;). the course was awesome, loads of single trail and a good mix of core network trails and others. it's great to do some of the old trails in a race as i don't seem to ride them any other time.
the field seemed bigger this time round, i guess because the race didn't clash with too many other events.
i had a pretty average race as i couldn't get my legs going and it took me about an hour to warm up. oh well, can't feel good every time ;) and it might pay to give the body some recovery time to freshen up before a race. i do actually know this, but the weather has been too good to not ride or run ;).
i did win the women's category though and am therefore still leading the series. next and last race is in 3 weeks. looking forward to it and will try to be more rested for that one.

ps: sorry haven't got a pic - again! :(
