Tour of KC




Fridays race was postponed due to a wedding on the course so they shortened the p/1/2 race in order to be done before dark, the race ended up being 45 minutes and was finished just in time. At the start Shadd S and Bill S were off the front and Mercy/Tradewind were there to keep the field in check. I was able to get in a few moves but again and again Tradewind shut it down. With 5 to go I stayed towards the front and off to the side and was able to keep speed when the attacks started to go. With 1 to go I wasn't doing what I had planned and was boxed in and ended up at the back for the entire last lap.


Saturdays race was very hot. 18 laps was too many for me. I was feeling too good between laps 9 and 14, attacking too much and riding in the wind. With 3 to go I was pretty tired, very tired and hot. I was cramped up and barely stayed with the group until the finish.
