SCX Round 3 Strathyclyde Park

Some unseasonably dry weather greeted the riders at Strathclyde Park for the 3rd round of the Scottish cyclocross series, which made a change from Srathy's usual rain soaked mudfest, where I go home with hypothermia and without my rear hanger.
There were just shy of 600 racers across all the races and 97 in the seniors. The weather made for some fast racing but the gravel climb still bloody hard wet or dry.
I pushed hard at the start to get further up the field at the kick off which I think helped me gain a few places and I had a good strong race beating a few folk I usually just come behind.
61st doesn't sound great but I felt I made ground on the next level of rider and I am 15 places better than the last race so definite improvement. Especially  pleased as once again I went into the race with a heavy cold so I am looking forward to a similar, if not better result at Fife college in Round 4 next Sunday.
