A tough Gravel Grit n Grind 🇸🇪 but I’m satisfied with 24th and a qualifying ticket to the UCI Worlds in the UCI Gravel World Series.
I managed to hit my head on Tuesday (while dog walking), and even though I didn’t get a concussion, I wasn’t feeling at my best. I rode conservatively, tried not to use more energy than needed. I started feeling stronger as the 146k race went on, thanks to 226ers Norway supplying me with energy products.
In the last climb, we were about 30 guys left, and I was ready to hit it, but got a pain in my lower back, and wasn’t able to dig deep.
I finished 24th, which was enough to give me a ticket to the UCI Worlds in Limburg 🇳🇱
Thanks to my wife Hanna for helping out in Halmstad (and in life).
