The Dirty South Roubaix 2025 Post!

Alright folks...

Tell us how it went for you...

I registered for the full. I had my mind to do it even if it took a while. However, the wind broke me. My average was under 10 MPH and I felt it would go lower as I kept trying. Ultimately, I decided to do the half, instead. I assumed I'd get a DNF which was fine but I qualified for the half instead and wasn't last so that made me happy.

Next time, I need to train. I didn't train and that was a mistake. So, I foresee more hilly riding in my future.

How about you all?

Early season is tough, especially if you have a job and family.

Yeah, me and @618Gravel biked together and decided to do half as a team! A very worn out and winded team LOL

I actually surprised myself with my fitness at the beginning of March. 3:43.xx, but the last stretch of Rhine road damn near killed me.
