This course was the ying and yang of racing surfaces. Some really bumpy nasty dry dirt and grass to rattle all fillings from your mouth. And a schweet smooth and fast velodrome to rip up and practice your banked high speed turns. In between… well… there was something in between those two sections but I don’t recall.

Ok, play by play, here it goes:

• Start!
• Bobble and crash to the left of me
• Bobble and crash to the right of me
• Punch through the middle
• Chase the group of 15 that missed the crash
• Bounce around the bumpy section
• Drop into the velodrome and rip it up
• Drop out of the velodrome
• Transition back to the dirt
• Repeat steps 5 through 9 for another 5 laps
• Finish



Whew.

That was hard.

I need to work on my intervals.

And I need to stop smiling so much while racing (thanks Jon S. for catching me goofing off!).
