Weekend in Review

Sorry I haven't been posting lately. That big snow storm screwed up everything about spring. I can happily say the snow is gone now. We had mid 70s and huge thunderstorms with tornadoson sunday. Thursday I managed to snag my new Team kitfrom Mr. Shoemaker in time to make the Bike Hub ride. That was a fun 33 mile ride with a good group of guys. Friday was a rest day for me. Saturday morning I rode with the TT flyers. We did a leisurely route down to Wrightstown. I ended up with about 42 miles. It was a cold morning once we got out to the country. Sunday I drove down to Madison for the Great Dane crit. I raced the cat 5s first. Felt pretty good, took it easy during the race. Wasn't even sure if it was the last lap when we took the final corner. When the others started sprinting I went too. I ended up 4th but probably could have done better but, I got squeezed into the gutter. It was fun though. About 40 minutes later I did the Masters 4/5. I kept it pretty mellow till the second half of that race. I tried to start a break but, I didn't have the legs. By the last lap I was cooked and just sat up after the last corner. Finished 19th in that race. It was a good day for Racing. Hot and I got sun burnt. I brought my kids and my dad down to watch and my brother met us there. After the race we went tto the Madison zoo and had some fun. It was a good day. Mountain biking next weekend? See ya outside...
