Today was great. wake up early pack all my bike stuff and head it to Walburg. Running late . 8:00 am ,pick Jimmy Olsen , Pack his bike and hit the road . My car was loaded 4 bikes ,4 people and 4 bags full of cycling stuff .on hwy 35 going 80 mph . made it to Walburg at 10:30am . While my wife register my kid to enter the 14 and under youth race Jimmy and I pick our numbers up. I have not seen jimmy for two weeks now and I notice something weird about him ,he is using this word for everything he like’s , PREMO !!!
Yes that’s the word , well anyway we put our numbers and got ready , we made it to the staging area 5 minutes before the start, the blue was giving the instructions to the 35 + , DO NOT CROSS THE YELLOW LINE TODAY, Well a lot of people cross the yellow line. Even better they attacked on the left lane . Well we were off , neutral for half a mile , when the race started I was in trouble two miles into the race on the first hill , did not warm up at all . A brake was form about 5 miles into the race we all miss it .
I went to the front of the field and try to keep it Rolling but when I hit the front of the pack , boom there it was . WIIINDY!!!~~~~~~~ OOOPPPS super freaking windy . Despite that I went to the front and surge .
I notice no one was following me , now I was in no mans land for a little while then I close a gap to Jt Cody and John Eder . THEN I FIND MY SELF ARGUING WITH EDER , he did not wanted to pull because he was blocking for his team mates on the brake , I reply ,MEN THAT’S NOT A BRAKE THAT’S A PACK ,ITS 15 RIDERS ON THAT GROUP BLA ,BLA ,BLA ,BLA . When we head it south on the course we had a big cross wind . I can believe it , people still do not know how to start another echelon.
We all are getting in the curb , so I try to start another echelon . guess what no one moved over ,I find my self all the way to the left of the right lane by my self . People please . Learn how too ,ill be much easier.
About 3 miles latter I got shell in the big hill , after that I just coast home .it was super wiiindy !!
But I will not change it for anything in the world it was fun , will see how I will wake up tomorrow ,I am hurting now will see tomorrow morning .
