Robin Horsfield
As preparation for his upcoming Mountain Bike Season Robin Horsfield entered the Paris to Ancaster 70 km race.
Riding a Mountain Bike in the majority-road event Horsfield finished 1st in the Men’s 20-29 Category and 17th overall (out of 1074 participants) with a time of 1:50:26.
Horsfield, who recently claimed his fourth Bermuda National title (following two years of Junior Championships) stated that riding in the road peloton on his mountain bike proved challenging.
The 70 km course consisted of 95% terrain best suited to road bikes, and the sections that were better suited to mountain bikes were mud slides (as opposed to singletrack).
Horsfield said, "I was pleased to be the main instigator of the major attack that split up the front group... unfortunately there were only five of us who broke away and the rest of the group regained ground on us and we were reeled back in after about ten kilometers. I paid for this activity later in the race... but ultimately this achieved my goal as this was to be a hard training ride before my real season starts in May in Quebec at the first Canada Cup."
