After a cold and rainy race in the Cyrus mountains, I finished once again 2nd. Jaroslav Kulhavy won todays stage as well. I had a bit tired legs duning the first half of the race. My 2 last laps were good and I had the winner in sight. I didn´t have power enough to catch him before the line, but made up some ground tough.
I am happy about my feeling and to finish 2nd overall at Afxentia stagerace. Now I have 7 days left on the camp at Cyprus and I will spend quality time at the bike before going home to Sweden a few days.
Next up is The fourt and last stage of Sunshine cup. It´s held in Limasol, about 45 minutes by bike from Kalavasos, where we stay.

2nd again at the Point to point race of the Afxentia stagerace. The winner Jaroslav Kulhavy was a bit to strong for me today as well. I had very good legs and tried as much as i could to keep his speed at the long climb. I lost a bit to much to be able to close the gap in the downhill towards the finish.
Better feeling every day and I am enjoying my time despite rain and cold weather.
Tomorrow a classic XC-race. I guess we will see many tired legs. Hope mine are ok =)

2nd at the first leg of the Afxentia stagerace today. I had good legs and a ride that was more or less free from troubles. I made a couple of misstakes and lost some time but todays winner Jaroslav Kulhavy was to strong for me and finished20 seconds before me. As it was very muddy and about 6 degrees the conditions were maby not the best.
The feeling at the bike is better and better and I hope to be able to do some good races.
