Wheeling CX

Wheeling cyclocross went great. I got staged in the front row and when the whistle blew, I was instantly in the front, chasing one kid who ended up crashing on the last lap. I took advantage of that and sprinted pass, now I was chasing another kid on the front. I ended up catching up to him on the finish but I was two seconds down and I got second place. It was a fun race but then it was time to focus on Montrose, CX state and Nationals qualifications. Training is going great. The day I'm writing this I went on a bone chilling hour long ride. 
 
Next race is in Indiana. Then it's time for montrose. Stay tuned,
PEACE

CX Update

Groundhog went good, I got 6th or 5th, I don't remember lol. Then there was Pheasant Run Resort Cross. Day one I ended up getting fifth losing 4th in a sprint. Day two I got second. Before the race I felt like crap and later when they blew the whistle, I was instantly in the top 5. I later got with leader and we rode together for the rest of race. We had a huge gap from second and third. I crashed a little less than half a lap to go and I lost the wheel of Marcus(leader) and I got second. I was 6 seconds away and then it was time for podium. I got some candy and I came home with a silver piece of hardware.

Campton Cross/Ground-Hog PSI

Campton Cross went good. I was holding a good position and then I crashed by losing traction and running into a tree.......lol. I messed my shoulder pretty bad too. I got passed but then I couldn't catch back on to the two juniors that passed me. I ended up getting 6th again but there's always next time. Now it's time for Ground-Hog PSI Cyclocross and I'm not too good, still runnin off that shoulder injury and a little cold but I'm not a PUSSY so I'm going to race tomorrow and do good....... hopefully. I'll update with pictures later... or it might be on my FaceBook.

Til tomorrow, or not, PEACE
