Well the cat 3/4 group was definatly bottlerockets. I managed to squeeze in as I was only 3rd on the wait list. The thing that is bad about that is I had my girlfriend pinning my number on with 1 minute before the race start and of course I started at the back of a field 100 deep. I was happy enough to finish the race in the main field. Those riders were definatly strong but there was 3 accidents and lots of breaking in the corners. At one point about 10 guys including myself fell off the back in a wicked head wind, then me and one other guy got it together and pulled back to the main field, that was a fun part of the race for me. I am guessing that 40 -50 riders finished the race. The course was great. The fast corners were nice and wide and the weather was beautiful.
