8:30 am was the start of the individual time trial (ITT) at Albi for the Masters world championship… Albi is in South of France, close to Toulouse, where the sun rise a 7 am and over 20 degrees. Well, an early start would be great for me but instead my race start was 16:04 ! 41 degrees on the sun! I was lucky enough to ride on a beautiful machine borrowed from a professional French team, Direct Energy. I did 23km in 32 minutes. 41km/h, Check strava segment: # 2017AlbiUCIGr
