Another two stages today, with the first a short time trial.
It was wet and muddy with some serious slushy single track and an old 80m long tunnel (very cool). Managed to get 2nd place on this stage.
Cruising for another 15km with plenty of short climbs, enough to suck life from my legs. Lunch before stage two was absolutely freezing, huddling together trying to stay warm.
The afternoon stage was 22km with a 3 km climb from the line in drizzle, a lot of us wore jackets but regretting it within 10 minutes. Great stage with a lot of technical fast down hills, I placed 5th on the stage, staying 5th in general.
