Ugh. Cold doesn't begin to describe it. Covered in snow and ice. Conditions seemed to get worse as we rode. Got the hole-shot and was 3rd out of the starting straight. Heard a lot of wrecks behind me.

Couldn't hold the groove in a lot of places and started to slowly lose position.

Started falling down in a lot of places and lost more positions.

Had 2 mechanicals - chain drop, brake caliper got jammed in the rear wheel.....and lost more places.

I was at least able to sprint off a guy at the end but it was for 23rd.

MJH2 - had a great race and placed in the top 10. I'll let him tell you his story.
