UCI 2.12 Tweedaagse van de Gaverstreek Cont......

So with stage 1 done and dusted it was time for day 2, and with one of our two strong rider making the winning break finishing 7th and subsequently 7th on GC the plan was to make the race as ard as possible, so it would split to pieces and get rid of the sprinter who won the first stage. With the weather coming to the party and provinding some decent wind it was going to be a tough day. Which was music to my ears after pulling up sore, even after my awsome masage (jealous much ?)
"Sign on"


"Rollong The Soreness out of the Legs"



Then it was time to line up.

"Where's wally?"

"There he is"

Notice that i chose to line up next to the Belgian National Amateur Champ.

"waiting for the start"


"And we were Off"


Unfortunately Day 2 was short lived for me, still cooked from day one i was out the arse on the first climb but managed to chase for about 10 in the cars and then with a small group at 75km/h with a tailwin onto the back of the bunch, right before the cross wind that would blow the race to pieces.

At the end of the day the GC didnt change and our best placed rider was 7th, meaning that i pocket'd 7 euro's for my work. Or in more relevant terms about 5 400g blocks of Belgian chocolate :P Yum
