Cherry Pie Criterium Masters 4/5 35+

Let me start off by saying I barely made it in this race.

I got my number about 10 minutes before the start of the race and then ran to get my bike and gear on… my watch said it was 5 minutes before the race started and I had to use the bathroom. When I came out with 3 minutes to spare I seen the field leaving. So I did what anyone would do I jumped on my bike and yelled out to the crowd to part like the Red Sea and joined the race about 500 meters back. After finishing the first lap I was given a free lap and joined the group at the top of the hill in the 3rd lap mid pack. There was a lot less braking and most corners were pretty smooth. The hill was still a great place to attack and I worked my way up in the pack and finished 9th.

Like to start off by thanking Larry and the Early Bird mentor team as well as VeloPromo for holding these races every year. It is such a great program. If it wasn’t for the Early Birds I probably wouldn’t be racing.  Great to see Team Fremont out these last 5 weeks.
I pulled into the parking [...]

Although I think the pace was a bit slower, this race was a lot harder for me than the others.  Spent the first couple of laps third wheel, but my legs were already complaining.  Coming out of turn 1 the pack jumped past all three of us.  I tried to get on a new wheel [...]
