Took 6th and some cash. But I'm hurting in a bad way today. I'm not use to racing crits, one after the other. Must learn to leave some matches to burn. I had one match today. One. And I saved it for the end to at least place in the money.

The best way to use the only match that you have. I'm betting there was some crafty riding to get near the end without using any matches. Good job!

I hid myself as best I could. Slowly taking spots that were easy and not bridging alone. Thanks.

What is this, your 3rd crit? Hiding out with one match and taking 6th.
You are now officially sandbagging.

Congrats.
