Paralympics Rio – Road race
Posted by Anders On September 15
Second and last race in Rio – road race 45 km. Felt great and was in the bronze position with 200 meters left. In the moment after that, the dream of a medal vanished.
Too close.

Time trial in Rio finished. Felt awesome but had a mechanical problem and had to stop after the start and then ride the whole race in the heaviest gear without being able to switch.
Pushed hard and felt like a strongman. Ended up 4th! FOURTH PLACE! Despite riding single speed heaviest gear!

Germany and Belgium

The international season started with a Euro Cup in Cologne, Germany where I placed no 1 in both the time trial and road race. Very happy about that! Then we went to Ostend, Belgium for the road race. Placed 5th in both time trial and the road race. Decent result considering the time of season. Next up will be the swedish internationals and then the World Cup in the Basque Country.

Now it’s finally official. I’m going to Rio for the Paralympics next year! I’ve been chosen by the Swedish Paralympic Commitee in the first selection round as 1 of only 4 individual athletes (all sports included) to compete in Rio.
