OK...so here goes..

Got there at about 9ish...registered...felt good but thought the race was at 10 so i got off the trainer way too early as we didn't start till about 1015 or so?..so i rode around the inside circle with the brakes on trying to keep some blood in the legs.

Race started pretty good until the pack heard the 20 minutes to go call...everyone stopped...like ridiculously slow...anywho...i worked my way toward the front and then to the back...and then to the front...didn't take any pulls today as i was just kinda taking it easy cause i haven't got any riding in not having a bike and all.

3 laps to go i start moving up....pretty easily as nobody apparently wanted the lead and neither did I...going into 2 to go some guy locks up his rear wheel going into turn one and i loose about 6 spots...no biggie...plenty of time....so i work my way back up with some good hard work to 5th or so going into that start of the bell lap and watch Merckx walk off the front...don't know why i didn't go with him... my sprint was about 34 ish today so i would have gotten him

any who i get chopped pretty hard going into the last left by some dude cause i put myself in a bad spot...what can i say that's racing...then i just decided..hey...i am on a rental, i am moving this week and can't do that from the hospital and just kinda let like 6 guys go around me...then the sprint starts and i get pissed about the previous decision to let everyone by and "drope" the hammer to pull in 9th.

well 2 9th place finishes should be me oddly about 7th or 8th in the series right?

fun day today though...i really liked the course and if i had known it was merckx going off the front i would have jumped with him...

see you guys in a couple of weeks in the 4s!! i am going out of town for travel so next race is the cycle vets race...

ps...i'll be training at 4500' the week prior to the cycle-vets omniom suckas!!!!
