It's like the people at my office don't know I won a damn bike race yesterday and should have today to celebrate...

Feels good to finally get one. Cyclowe pretty much nailed the report. I sat on the very back the entire time. I was a bit surprised that as many folks got dropped as did. Tried to move up with 3 to go, only to find myself at the back again. With a little over a lap to go I was resigned to having to try to sprint from the back. On the last lap, first little climb the field sat up and I popped to the front... muscled my way into about 4th wheel at the next turn. One guy slipped off the front and it took everything I had not to chase him- I surely would have in the past. We came through the final turn with the one guy a little off the front and I had 1 or 2 guys directly in front of me. I'd previously "measured" the speed limit sign as the spot to start the sprint, and was a little surprised that nobody else seemed to jump by that point. So, we hit the speed limit sign, I pulled out of line, shifted up a gear and mashed.

I closed on that guy at the front at a pretty good clip and neither one of us really knew who had it as we crossed the line. I honestly think that dude didn't know I was coming, as it looks like he never even threw the bike.

Wilke- I will pay you a decent sum for that finish cam pic in as high of a resolution as you can get it! And, of course, will be buying some of the others when I have a sec...
