40 mile circuit race. (think mt. tabor with shorter laps.)

I am pretty beat tonight. 33 laps up a big ring hill on tired legs.

I got chopped and lost some spokes in my front wheel, got a spare and got back in, finished in 11th or 12th in the field sprint.

Again, missing crashes by the skin on my teeth.

When am I going to run out of skin on my teeth?

The team was awesome today, Akira delivering me up the climb flawlessly. His ability to weave through the field is amazing. Duncan sacrificing his fancy Zipp for me to bang around on.

I’m beat.

I think we defended my 9th gc spot, I’ll try to improve on it tomorrow in the road race.
