be sure to always have your number on before getting on this track, otherwise you will get yelled at: "HEY UNATTACHED!" somehow that made it all the better
this is me waiting for a jump during one of our races.
this is me probably doing the same thing.
here is me looking very serious.
here is me looking serious, and this girl looking very happy.
and this is just a picture of my riding at some point in the day.last night were larry's scratch races. i think the most exciting part of the night was when my bike fell of the hood of mike's car and was hanging on by the wheel. it was pretty funny just looking out the side window and seeing my bike dangling. i couldn't help but laugh. we were luckily not on the freeway and all was fine!
anyway, we did two 30 lap scratch races. it was terribly windy and i had a hard time turning over my whooping 82" gear. after the race, i was wondering if i accidentally put my 14 cog on the back...nope, i am just that weak sauce. both the ladies races were a blast. first race i was gracious enough to give a killer two lap lead out to the VBs. second race, i was a bit smarter. both races were pretty fun, as stuff was going on the whole time. i was a bit disappointed in myself, however. the last couple of races - both at ADT and that saturday omnium a couple weeks ago - i felt like i was really aware and seeing things, and quickly responding...like my peripheral vision had expanded or something. yesterday, though, i felt like i regressed to seventh grade and just wasn't there- slow to respond, not seeing stuff, and i just don't think i was riding very comfortably out there, as i have been lately. well, that was some touchy, feely race reportage.....anyway, it was some good, quick racing with ali, sabina, erica, linda, sarah, et al. this race was way more entertaining than at ADT. after our women's races, i hopped in the men's B/C 40 lap race just to ride some more. like a big ninny, i put myself in stupid ass position right before the jump and missed it, so chilled on a paceline for the remainder of the race to get some training in. then mike and ali drove me home and we ate some chex mix. mmm, chex mix...
