1h plus one lap
Second place right behind Fredrik Kessiakof
It was a short trip to Prague.
Flying in late in the evening, racing the next day, and then home early in the morning again.
The race was all on cobble stones, most of the downhills over stairs and the way up to the finish very steep.
There were thousands of spectators, and I wish to have more races like this.
We flew down over those stairs, and you can imagine how rough this was, especially for the bikes. I could not imagine doing this without my Epic Full Suspenison Bike. It was very good product testing, and since it passed this test it will hold forever!
In the middle of the race I broke away and had a quite a comfi lead. At that point I more or less wanted to test myself and the other guys.
I took off some speed again, and thought towards the end it will be even easier to break away. But I did not expect Frederik to come back so strong.
I tried hard the last 3 laps, but Fredrik could hold on well. Finally I lost the long uphill sprint for first place.

"product testing" |

Hi Christophe!
in your commentary on the Prag City Race, you write "it was very good product testing, and since it passed this test, it will hold forever!" ... are you talking about your NEW frame, of which you try to shave off some 300-400 gram to get the weight of the Epic below 9kg ... ??? WOEHAAAA!
