Nice win! Cool pictures of your final sprint and interesting race report.
Congrats, I'm sure it feels great to cross the line first.

Reading your report, being aggressive is key. It's strange that the races are actually easier when I ride more aggressively.

Great work.

Thanks.

That is very impressive of your friend, so did he do the climb with the 46 or did he have a small ring also?

I like the 3rd picture, in the background the guy in 3rd is so tired, he's looking over to see if he has 3rd locked up or not!

Love it-
