Dominique Mayho has offered comments on his France experience thus far. Mayho is spending two months with Philippe Mauduit, training and racing with the club UCC Vivonne. This week the young rider completed 336km of riding in more than 12 hours.
Mayho said, “Since I've been in France I've been training mostly on the same roads because I didn't want to get lost! This week I decided to do a little exploring. I found some really nice routes for training - and I got lost almost every day! It was pretty easy to find my way back though by looking at the road signs.”
“This week I had one race on Sunday with the Category One guys. The course was mainly flat with one short hill. I can see that I'm getting much fitter because the last time I raced with these guys two weeks ago, I only lasted an hour. This time was much better. I was in the front group until two laps to go. I think I got a top ten finish overall and I won the Category Two Division so they gave me a cup and flowers. Next Sunday I'll be racing with Category One again, and I hope to stay with them until the end of the race,” concluded Mayho.
