Spot teammate Paul ....

This weekend was going to be a one race weekend for me. The choice was pretty tough as both races were 2-3 hours away in Virginia. In the end the choice came down two factors :

1. I have never done the King George Race

2. The idea of sitting in traffic on Sunday Night on I-95 was more than I could bear.

Okay, call me weak, the Sunday race was a MAC, was a UCI and definitely would have had tougher competition, but I raced Saturday, had a really good ride, and ended up making the podium. 5th place overall. A field of just 43, which is by far the smallest field I have started in this year, but still pretty damn big, for a regional race. I know the many of MAC strong men where not present, but I'll be honest I was pleased with my ride. Had a nice battle with Fred W. He came around me after I crashed my brains out, I made contact twice, but in the same false flat section he gapped me and with one to go, he got maybe 25 yards on me that I couldn't close up. Mark G, was never too far off and kept me honest. Slick Rick took the overall, Kutney from VA, was second, Mr. Root 3rd. Hats off to Judd, the course was wicked tight very technical. Aside from me stacking it wicked hard going into the run up, I just carried too much speed, I was very pleased with my ride.

For those keeping track at home that's three good rides in three weeks. I'm riding my best cross of this season, hell of my life, and coming into the final 2 weeks of the season with Mabra finals, Mac Finals, and that race little race in Providence, I'm feeling pretty good.

Yeah. This next two weeks are gonna be ones to remember
