Ring of Fire

Last night I decided to do the Ring of Fire. My legs were already dead from a workout that I had done earlier in the day. My plan for the race was to just sit in and get a good workout. But as always I try to get in breaks and sprint for points. I didnt get any points until the last sprint. I managed to get second on the last sprint which got me 6 points since the last sprint is worth double points. I ended up getting 11th for the night. One of my goals for this year is to get top 3 at the Track. I will be doing the Tomato Head RR in Tennesee this weekend. I hope to get some upgrade points. All for now

So I have been playing this awesome game called Pro Cycling Manager. Its pretty awesome. Here is a screenshot.

Ring of Fire!

So the first Night of the Ring of Fire went good for me. I felt strong and was able to bridge up to breaks and contest some sprints. My intentions for this race was to just sit in and get a good workout. One of my goals for this year is to win The Ring of Fire one night. It looks like Industry Nine is going to try and win these events. I look forward to the next Ring og Fire! All for now

Dilworth Crit

This weekend I went to Dilworth to race in The USA Crit series. The race did not go so well for me. I managed to get a second place in the juniors. I did not realize that someone was off the front until 5 laps to go. My legs didnt feel good at all and I knew that the Cat 2/3 race was going to be super hard and fast. I managed to get 1st in the 17-18 year old but second overall in the Juniors. I got a yellow jersey and a sweet trophey. I always managed to come away with a 500 dollar scholarship prime to Lees Mcrae. As for the Cat 2/3 race I mangaged to hang on for aobut 4 or 5 laps before I got dropped. Then I got lapped and then I decided it was time to bail out of the race. So I pretty much had a bad day. I am doing the 12 hours of Tsali on the 17th and then Roan Groan on the 7th of June. I may try to do a crit or something in between. All for now.
