Dominique Mayho has offered comments on his France experience thus far. Mahyo will spend two months with Philippe Mauduit, training and racing with the club UCC Vivonne. This week the young rider completed 520km of riding.
Mayho said, “I'm starting to get used to living in France, they have nice but sometimes strange food, although the great people and they have good roads. I can finally ride in one direction as long as I want! The weather is good, hot but not humid, so perfect for riding.”
“The intensity and volume of riding has certainly picked up a lot. I'm riding six days a week and on Tuesdays I'm riding twice,” continued Mayho.
Mayho continued, “I competed in my second race in category two for UCC VIVONNE. The course was a lot harder than last weeks'. It was eight laps of just under thirteen KM's a lap. There were two long climbs really close together.”
“I stayed in the lead pack as long as possible but the fifth time around was just too much. I joined with one of my teammates and we finished in front of the chase group, I was 23rd out of 44 competitors, hopefully the next race, which is on Wednesday, is flatter,” concluded Mayho.
