Memorial Day Criterium

posted in: Race report | 0

Course was on great conditions not technical but enough amount of corners to keep you awake! we start with a moderate pace until almost the last laps when people in the front start to digging a Little more on the pace there wasn’t any breaks and the only 2/3 attempt was controled  right away this mean everybody was waiting for the final sprint,i was riding almost 3/4 of the race in the middle to the top 10 just watching to trying to set up the sprint for Gonzalo and when i saw the last 2 laps and i start to move to the front trying to carry with me Tony D. Gonzalo and Chris since Mike C.was on the inside of the pack and we where @ the outside;when the bell sounds for the last lap everybody was doing a really high speed we enter corner #1 and i was still on the outside lane which i saw during the race it will be a good place to be for the lead out since all the pack was riding inside all the laps;when we where at the curve i say to Gonzalo to follow me and saw Chris in front of me and tell him to go with us but he didn’t and move to the right @ this point i was in the outside front thinking Gonzalo was on my wheel but he wasn’t it was a rider from the CSC Fresno on my wheel and no one from the Team so i just pull out because i didn’t want to lead to another racer when i get on the corner #3 i just keep going with the speed to finish with the pack.
