My first race...at the start it was 31 degrees, wicked dark grey skies, and flurries, 20 mph winds...stayed with the pack for about 1.5-2 miles...first hill i missed a gear and got dropped..rode alone for 22 miles and man when the 'A' field passed me they are effin fast...being sponsored helps them be faster also..LOL
here are some pics and you can see how cold it was..
another race this saturday..my goal is to stay with the pack after that hill!
