That climb was followed later in the evening by a crit, where I go killed! I only lasted about 7 minutes....I got pulled just before I got lapped...that was tough! (first crit also). The next day it was a 35 miles road race, where I did better - I placed 22 out of 31. The road race was a lot of fun, i enjoyed it the most of all three races. Thank you again for all your input!
The operative word was "fun", and I'm glad you enjoyed yourself! No worries on the crit, many of us have experienced such results in their early attempts. Just keep doing them!
Congratulations!
