Here's their video of the finish: https://www.facebook.com/20926695592...6090900908104/

I went from 600m out, right before the turn into the finish straight. I hadn't really 'planned' on this, but I didn't want to get boxed in, and I usually don't trust other people going around corners at speed (I hate it when they brake). So I popped off the front, went through the corner, saw that I had a 10m gap and thought f*** it! I'll go! I gave absolutely everything I had to hold on to the line, threw my bike at the line and won by maybe half a wheel.

Initial jump of 1182w until the corner, then peaked at 1300w and held 565w for the 50s or so the sprint took. The latter is a PR ^_^

Also, I met @topflightpro Thanks for introducing yourself!
Huge congrats!!
