aka kermesses. done a few of those since i got back to europe. the form is good, but tactics, so far, aren't up to par. Missed breakaways by being too conservative, and by being too agressive. Frustrating since I have the legs, but kermesse racing ain't always about the legs. These belgies are just so crafty.
today, as a consolation prize, i smashed around the peleton and eventually got away in a group of 6 or 7. Then, i shocked myself by winning the sprint (and don't worry, the other guys were sprinting. They sprint for 30th here. actually, i think they sprint for 100th).
can't wait for some stage racing soon. first time i see a hill i'm going to be a happy bike racer.
