It's hard to win though. The three people on stage are die hard competors with fast bikes who have been doing this for years. The winner already won the ticket for the final in London at an earlier race in the Chech Republic, so he gave his ticket to the guy who finished second.

I have a stock M2L with a 19% gear reduction. My only modification was removing the frame pump for some weight saving. 😀

That's a very good result for someone unprepared. Shoot for the top 5 next time. Anything can happen once you are in the mix for the win.
