State Road Race

State was great-ish. I attacked from the start but that did't last. At the start, there were a little more than 20 riders. After my attack, I think we were in a group of 8. There A LOT of attacks but all of them were caught. Later on me another rider made a "wall" caude there were to many attacks lol. After like a mile I went into the group to rest for the sprint. I didn't know when the last 1000 meters was because my CatEye was having problems. So, other kids started sprinting so I sprinted. 2 seconds after I started my sprint, there was a crash. Sadly, one of the people in the crash is a good friend of mine. I ended up taking top honors. I won the sprint with like 1 1/2-2 bikes distance from seconds. 

I wish for the two kids that crashed very quick recovery and I hope to race them again.


Bonus:
New Glarus Road Race is in like 9 days. I hope to you there Marcus. We haven't raced together in awhile.

PEACE

Nationals and upcoming Race

Nationals:

Nationals was fun but hurt. The TT was great, ended up in the 30's or something like that. The course was super fun and hilly. What caught me was the the downhill. I don't have a lot of mass so the wind kind of killed me too. But, there's still next year. The RR was great, in the beginning, we were going up to the first climb, I attacked so then we can split the group, drop some kids and so on, then I went behind a kid to draft and then there was a crash. I got caught behind it and ended up in one of 2 or 3 chasing groups. Some kid cut me off badly and that caused me to crash. Sram (Mutual Service) helped me get back up and then I was on my way. Unfortunately, I couldn't catch my chasing group and then I got caught by another one and finished with them. The criterium, wasn't so good, I got dropped and then got pulled 3 laps to go. SOOO, thats how Nats. went.


 Upcoming Race:

The IL State RR is on Sunday. I can't wait to race it. I was sick at State Crit.... so I hope I won't do bad. I am trying to get one of my bike friends to go but he's not responding. I hope I'll hear from him so then we can TEAR IT UP!! Haven't raced in awhile because, simply, there were no races to go to. 

Here's a little BONUS:

The Pinarello is great, just cleaned it for the first time since Nationals. Lubed the chain, everything is in working order. There are a little hopes of a new bike next season, but then again that's what I said last season!  :Sheds a little tear while laughing:  If you guys want to follow me on Twitter, FaceBook,and Instagram, here's my info--->
