Wow! What a weekend. I am totally impressed by the caliber of riders that were out for this event. Even in the lowly Cat 5 category there are some awesome atheletes. Totally impressive are the Juvectus group of young riders. I haven't seen the results yet but in every event they were a power house.... well done.
Speed Theory has some fabulous talent this year as well. I was honored to be working with some of the other guys in the cat 5 road race. I think that some of them came in in the top 10-15. I ran over Rob (the road rash) Welsch on the second last corner so I didn't get to see the final sprint. With that said, I felt awesome (mostly) until that point. I'm sure I would have been crushed in the final sprint but it was a fun race.
Thank you Velocity for putting on such a well organized event. The volunteers and organizers were fabulous.
Does anyone have a relative, friend or co-worker that might be coming from edmonton? I left a wheel set in the wheel car and was hoping someone might be coming to Calgary soon and can bring them down. Lastly, I left some sunglasses in the Boston Pizza and was hoping someone grabbed them..
I seem to have a bout of LHD (Lockland Holmes Disease) for forgetting stuff. At least I got to race :) I better be carefull, I hear he's a black belt in Thong-quan-doe.
Sorry about that Tom, I was oh no no no when I saw you coming for me.
ReplyDeleteI felt awesome as well heading up front into that final stretch until unfortunatly the dudes in front of me got tangled up and braked hard and I hit a wheel. -> splat
next time :)
Opps! and here I thought that i got a top 15 finish in Sunday's RR...but they may have disqualified me for riding too far past the center line :( d'oh!
