Who raced? I saw at least two bikeforums members and a few more are probably still racing. Raced juniors and was really afraid of causing a crash because I was tired so I took the turns sharp, eventually they told me to just jump in the pack. There was a breakaway that stayed away and I nearly bonked on the lap they left. Stomach was eating itself and I became pack fodder in the sprint.

How'd you do?

I was there. Met CastIron. Say hi next time, Youngin!

Raced 5s. Smallest field EVER! I wonder why so many folks didn't come... the season is so short, I feel like I have to race everything I can make it to.

I like that course... very fast. But bumpy.

Youngin' you just hide behind the haybales or what?

Rob didn't just meet me, he utterly crushed me on his way to second place.
