Maine CX double header
Ow, just got back from a short run!
OK, I got killed in the heat on Saturday, in the B race. 20 minutes in I knew I was just done - was reduced to soft pedaling and trying not to pass out from heat stroke. Remind me to not ever race cross again if it’s over 83 degrees out. Dehydrated, dejected, disillusioned.
Next day was much better up at Pinelands, about 20 degrees cooler in the Elite Masters race. I felt 100x better and was laying down some good power and rode technically flawless. I duked it out with my team mate Matt H. the entire race - gapped him a bit on the last lap to finish 9th. Whatever - I’ll take it. I could see the front of the race a lot of the time, which is good for me. Kevin Hines got a flat and then went on a serious rampage.
Better race report for this up on the BIKEMAN site soon, I promise.
Big week coming up!
