Epic Reach The Beach

What a blast and what a nice day.I started strong but later on lost the lead group.I rode hard to get myself back into the top 10 but soon after my back started to tighten up.The last 35km or so were hell because of my back.Every bump Jarred me and i could not seem to push the big gears like i like to do.I had to helplessly watch people catch up to me and pass and there was nothing i could do about it.I think my time was 4:58 which had me in 17th place out of 59 or 57 riders and the winning time was 4:17 i think or maybe alittle less i can't seem to remember.The sand was soft and draining and i suffered alittle but i liked it.Hardly wait for next year.Oh yah the race ended up being 105km's.
