It was a real whirlwind of a week, with minimal taper and recovery between the races. The crit race with the men at Thruxton didn’t go brilliantly; it was brutally fast off the start, and most of us Skoda riders got dropped halfway through.

Next up was a recce of the CiCLE Classic course with Lizzie Banks (Ceratizit-WNT), who was really kind and helpful.
