All power from Stephane
It was a pretty good race for me. I was in the lead group with five riders. But the last two laps was too hard for me. Legs were out and I lost a lot of place in the last lap. Not the result I expected but the shape is here. Another chance Sunday!

All we can see is that mullet
"I was missing a little bit of spark on the first couple of laps but I felt very strong over the second half of the race and managed to move through the field well to take 7th. Now time to try recover and race well in round number 2!"
-Anton Cooper-
A solid race for Anton, climbing into the top-10
For the men, a good day out.
Anton Copper in 7th
Stephane Tempier in 13th.
