Masters 3/4 race video up. Did not run it through stabilization this time. At 8:54 you can see SpongeDad laying on the ground briefly.

It's cause I'm better looking. Actually, it's probably an artifact of jumping btw the 4 and Master 3/4 races.
I think 15 races will be a high water mark for me. I'm not gonna win any MABRA jersey, so there's a few that probably won't make it into the queue next year. Granogue, Fair Hill, Winchester, Kinder, Tacchino and Rockburn are my favorites - everything else is negotiable.

Ya, I didn't like that corner either. I went down in it in practice & on 2nd lap. It flows so well into it, but for w/e reason it didn't have grass there just a bit of slick mud.
Either way, good day for me at the race. Won the B race and took hold of the leaders jersey in the final race of the series =) Catting up to 2 and probably doing only DCCX next year. Going after the MAC jersey.

Found this video of the guy who won he Cat4 race from Taneytown. The dude is a professional triatlete and an elite athlete and IMHO has no business in the Cat4 race. Even with his horrible bike handling skills (as shown in the video) the guy won by a huge margin and then brags at the end that he only worked hard for 2 laps. Could not help but to comment on the video although I'm sure the owner (coach) will remove them.
