Today we raced the finals of wheels of speed In Willingen Germany. Yesterday was the seeding run and I got 10th place. I wasn’t too happy with that and I knew that I can make up some time in the finals. I blew few sections on my seeding and I could have been smoother.
In the finals I managed to pull a smooth run and took 4sec off of my seeding run.
I ended up on 5th place and was happy to get my first podium of the season. It was really tight in times and I was only 1.6sec off Gee Atherton who won the race in front of Mich Hannah by just 0.01sec. I am pretty happy to get good result on a track that I have never liked too much because it has so much pedaling and it´s not really technical.
Tomorrow we will head to Maribor Slovenia for the world cup round 5. On a way to Maribor we will hit some riding spots in Europe and do a little road trip with the team. Stay tuned for more updates from the road trip!
