World Cup – Koksijde
Last Saturday I represented Great Britain at the Cyclo Cross World Cup in Belgium. I traveled out with the GB team on Thursday. On Friday we rode the course which scared me quite a bit ready for Saturday. The course was on sand dunes – not quite what i’m used to. The sand was too deep to ride through in places so I spent a lot of time running with my bike.
The support from the crowds was like nothing i’d ever experiened before. Every bit of the course was packed with spectators all cheering every rider. The buzz I got from that definately made me go quicker.
I had my own little support crew that I brought from home!
I finished 41st which I was happy with considering I was riding with the Elites and the youngest in the field.
It was such a good experience and I can’t wait to do more international racing.
