Later I get the story. He showed up late, grabbed bike, put on helmet and shoes, throws $20 at the reg table (number already pinned from last week) and has not even pulled up his bibs yet, gets in the race almost a lap down, takes off his jersey, pulls up the bibs, puts jersey back on (all of this on a 6-turn, windy, short crit course), zips up, proceeds to catch and pass the field. FTW.
I guess he had enough warmup.
