We’ve had some bum races the last few days.
Captech was going good with Ben in the move of the day but, he had an asthma attack and had to pull out. Jesse, Scott, and I tried to salvage what we could of the race but, couldn’t crack the top ten.
CSC Invitational was tough today. We all road hard and most of us managed to avoid the crazy crashes but, still didn’t do very well. The course was very fast and it was overcast with lots of wind. Ben didn’t start since his knee has just started to bug him and he flew home to make sure he gets it recovered before Philly. We were looking pretty good with the majority of the team up front most of the race. And after about 80 laps, and 10 crashes we were down to 3 in the final 20 or so. Due to some miscommunication and a crash that gapped Dan off I ended up being the guy for the sprint with 10 togo. I totally jacked it up though. I didn’t put myself where I need to be and ended up sprinting for 10th place. Which was weak considering alot of the top sprinters didn’t make the final 20 guys.
Were hanging at the Dille’s for one more night then heading up to Lancaster tomorrow. Lancaster will be tough tomorrow and I believe the weather is going to be spotty all week.
