It is a good shot and I like the Tron skinsuit.
What was your final time?
slightly less than 54. bunch of cat-4's would have beaten me. i doubt i'd have been slower in the first half if i were on my road bike...
btw, going 20 mph on that course when you are coming off of an lay-off is pretty good. you must have set a few power records along the way
