I started a
thread in the socal forum, but the short of it was that I am pretty much a permanent mid-packer. Got somewhere around 30th out of 60, but at least I outsprinted my group. Bottom line is that climbing is my limiter, I have to lose about 15 pounds to be competitve climbing again. Edit: I never thought I would say this, but I am starting to like crits and am actually looking forward to tomorrow's. Should be interesting, there is a prime on every lap...
Have your body fat checked. Try to get it to 6% if you can - ssssllloooowwwwllllyyy. And find big, nasty hills and repeat them often.
