Cat 5 pace?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I have humble expectations for my races:
1) Don't fall
2) Finish the race
3) Don't be the last one (well, really, be in the top 50%...)

I hear you. I had similar goals for cross this year. Heck, I don't even mind coming in last as long as I get to actually race someone instead of just riding by myself. Finally became a mid pack cross racer this year after taking to heart the lessons I posted earlier!!!!
