Leeston Legends & a Roundabout Rumble 🚴💥 Christchurch, Canterbury ⛅

{"raceId":12787564174,"athleteId":2188545,"name":"Leeston Legends \u0026 a Roundabout Rumble 🚴💥 Christchurch, Canterbury ⛅","description":"It was a perfect night for racing—20°, light winds, and 60 of us out there to tackle Leeston. I settled into the handicap mark with a bit of extra intensity, feeling strong and sitting just shy of the red zone. For most of the ride, I felt comfortably fast, right on the edge without tipping over. We clocked a pretty quick race, faster than last week, with scratch just missing the catch thanks to a smaller-than-usual bunch on their end. By the end, I rolled in around 9th or 10th, more than happy with the night’s effort!\n\nThe cherry on top was having David back from Germany. We’ve raced together since my first two seasons, and it was brilliant to have him with us. After a few pints at The Lab, we headed home…but in classic fashion, a bit of miscommunication at the roundabout, and boom—down I went! Luckily, the bike only suffered a little scrape, though my shoulder’s got a bit of a click to it now. My wife patched me up like a pro (without too much judgment, bless her!).\n\nSo tomorrow, I’ll see how things feel, but even if I’m grounded, it’s trainer time. A tumble’s no excuse to slack on the goals! This old dog’s not giving up anytime soon.\n\nRide Highlights:\n\n\t•\t🌅 Beautiful evening in Leeston, light winds, and great company.\n\t•\t🚀 Held steady in the handicap mark, keeping it spicy without tipping into the red.\n\t•\t⚡ Faster pace than last week and kept scratch at bay.\n\t•\t👊 Finished strong, just shy of a top 10.\n\t•\t🤝 Great to have my old mate David back from Germany in the peloton.\n\t•\t🍺 Celebratory pints at The Lab with the crew.\n\t•\t🚴‍♂️ Roundabout wipeout…bike’s fine, shoulder a bit worse for wear.\n\t•\t👩‍⚕️ Wife’s first-aid to the rescue; no sympathy, but she’ll keep me rolling!\n\nImage Caption: “Leeston race vibes, a reunion on wheels, and a lesson in roundabouts!”\n\nWeather Report: Scattered clouds, 20°C, and the wind was blowing 11km/h from N\n\n📈
