Had a good day and could challenge the pro Emil Lindgren for the win. I got a 10 sec gap on lap 3 which I held until lap 7.  With some cramps in the hot´n dusty conditions I had to let him go when he came past me. But I found my rhythm again and was only about 10 sec behind to finish 2nd. Last years champ Matthias Wengelin was 3rd. The course was very intensive but really good, well done course builders! And the crowds were fantastic, very cool to race with such atmosphere!
