I did 0 work and was in decent position in the last corner but still a bit short for the sprint. I see 189 bpm on the HR monitor which is way above my usual max HR, weird. Can’t wait for next week, I’ll be doing laps on the SBK before the cycling ???? DieselnDust and GDG 2

I considered asking my wife to leave work early so that I can go race my bike and only be back after the kiddo is fed and bathed and in bed, but I went a different direction... Sounds like it was a good session to get in the legs. ???? The Ouzo and Jbr 1 1

Sounds like it was a good session to get in the legs. ???? yeah it was fast and furious, a little bit too much for me for a 1st of the season maybe, from what I remembered it usually starts rubbing after 2 or 3 races, well not this time But there was close to no wind, not many breaks or gaps forming so the power numbers/efforts in the legs were not that crazy except for the first 2-3 laps and the last lap of course. Overall it was a very good one to get back to it and get a feel for close-fast racing, hope you can make it next time and we can meet in person
bleedToWin Posted September 17, 2021 Author Posted September 17, 2021 Team VanDM race report: On Wednesday Jan-Harm and guest rider @Jbr took on the second Nite series race at Killarney Race track by Del-Al. It was hard and fast! Starting position is pivotal and unfortunately the 2 of them were caught in traffic far in the back. Things were strung out and splits happened from the gun, but it was a hard day out with good clean and safe racing!! Big thanks to JB for guest riding for the team. Maybe more to come? Duane_Bosch 1
Jbr Posted September 17, 2021 Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) It's nice to see the numbers are growing, but it also causes congestions to leave pitlane and get to the track, by the time we clipped in the front of the race was already out of turn 1, and on a windy day like this the bunch stretches and breaks very easily ! Also lots of the guys were rubbing elbows causing swerves and other guys jumping on the brakes, which also created a few gaps Edited September 17, 2021 by Jbr
