Oh come on, you've got to give us more details :D

How'd it go, how'd you guys do?

LoL It was my first Road race, comign from cyclocross season. The track was kinda shakey with the grates and stuff on it, it was a .5 mile track with a slight S turn the front straight away had a nice 15mph + head wind, I belive there was around 25 laps at about 8 laps to go I fell off the pack on the straight away, and I belive I came second to last, I met up with Jake after the race and he said he thinks liek 7th to last, but im not shure of that I think he did better.

I hung around to watch the Cat4 race I want to know what some of yalls thoughts were when they told yall at the start line to go warm up again because they wernt ready, I saw a couple people mashing the gears thinking it was a race.

Very windy today! Anyone know when the results will be posted online?

I was kind of greatfull that they let us do a couple warm up laps, I was freezin my baws off. That wind was crazy but it was fun doing echelon formations going through the finish area. I raced in the little ring the whole race except for two attacks when I jumped to the big ring. So on my 11x23 I rode a 39X12 the whole race like I was on a fixed wheel bike. btw I was on a red bike racing for East Coasters (blue jersey), long hair. Matto this was my first race too after winter cross, did you do that series this year? I had a blast this winter especially that really muddy race.

I did'nt really want to race too hard yesterday nor chase down my teammate, not that I would ever have cought him since he lapped the field and ended up second. So there was a group of two that lapped then a chase group of maybe 6 or 7? and then the main field. They only posted top 10 results and I wasn't on it :(

I think I know you, Im the guy with the sand hills jersey, and my friend pat won acouple of C races in the winter cup, haah small world

yep-I had a fun time to-it was nice meeting up with you guys. Matto-you were with the guy with the long hair that was pretty tall-right?

Jake

By the way, I think I was worse than 7th from last

Nah I was the probably shorter of the three the other 2 dudes had blond hair and Im tan with dark hair, also had the red 1200.

ohhh-ok, you came up and said hi, right?

yup
