First cyclocross win!!!





I raced Starcrossed up in Redmond near Seattle on Saturday. I raced Masters 35+ cat 3/4 and got 6th, 1 place outside the prizes. I was pretty pleased, though becasue I arrived 15 minutes before the start, and raced without preriding the course in the pouring rain. I was 4th row in the grid, so I made in up from about 40th to 6th in 6 laps (about 80 starters).




Sunday was the RAD Racing GP at Steilacoom with the young fellas in cat 4 men. I started well and led after a lap. From lap 1 to to the finish I was followed by a rider from Vancouver BC and we created a pretty good gap. He had my wheel all the way to the final sprint, but I managed to leave him behind on the final straight.


Sorry about the scruffy jeans, Mum.
