Results: Pack fodder. Race was so short I lost track of number of laps and never heard the bell. Warmed up for 40 minutes, raced for 31... blech. By the time I was getting into the groove on the bike, the race was over.

3 crashes, two in front and one to the side. Better than the Cat 3/4/5 races (as categorized by them today) - Cat 4 racing had two guys out on ambulances in a hurry.

Lots of lessons learned on the short crit style racing after only doing circuit racing/long road races. Met a nice guy from Disco/Marco Polo's development team that was racing the Cat 1 race, bike p*rn to follow.

Skipping my bike in the top left, these are just a handful of the bikes that showed up today.

I don't dig Trek so much, but the Marco Polo/Discovery paint job rocks
