Dash for Cash
http://norcal.christiancycling.com/IC3/Race.htmlDash for Ca$h Criterium
Chilly morning, way too chilly for Pleasanton. About 35-37 size field, including some really strong women in attendance. Dash much? Who, me? Well no, I don’t really consider myself much of a dasher but sure, why not. And I had Ashlee, Claire and Denise to race with. My main goal was to focus on the other 3s in the race, as we were being picked separately. (It was about 65% 1/2s and 35% 3s.) But after the race, the results showed I’d only finished in the middle… in the middle of my category and pretty much in the middle overall. Thought I’d done better. There was a crash inside of 3 laps to go — it was a dumb crash, happened in a turn. It didn’t even seem like we were going into that turn very fast, perhaps some of the girls just weren’t being attentive. I think 3-4 went down. The last couple laps were a bit dicey, with 2 to go, there were still girls out on the course who’d been involved in the crash. It was fairly windy turning into the finishing straight and the field fans out across the course, so it was difficult to gauge where I’d finished among the 3s. As I said, thought I’d done better. Coulda, shoulda….-rita
