brief update.. Grand Prix Molly Cameron on Saturday Ninkrossi race. Great course for me with some ups and downs.. I've been focusing a ton this year on my technical skills escpecially cornering and I'm opening gaps on guys this year with that..so that is good. I ended up 4th today. Not bad with a bigger field this week.
Sunday Cross Crusade at Portland International Raceway. I've yet to have a good race at a Cross Crusade, but today's dirt crit suited me and I was determined. I got a good start and got into top 10 or so. The race went on and I was starting to feel stronger by mid-race when I hear the familiar the nasty noise of a rear wheel going into my rear deraiuller.. really I'm 2 for 3 with this happening at Cross Crusades. I continue for 2 laps and deal with the skipping and then it happens.. Chain into the spokes. I frantically get it out and lose a few spots just as I was about to bridge to top 10. I get to the pits and grab the B bike and the gap is gone and I'm in no-mans-land and finish 16th.
