Re: Quad Cities weekend
I live in Davenport, so i'm doing all four days...right now it's sunday morning, and i'm going down to muscatine in a little bit.
friday night i got caught behind a crash on the top of the hill before the finish so i wasn't able to sprint, but my teammate, Greg from DICE, won the Cat 4/5 race. Sat...holy crap...the snake hurts! Anyone who doesn't know what that is...Snake Alley is in Burlington Iowa and is a 12.5% average grade on bricks with switchbacks for one block...it hurts sooooooooooooooooo much! I ended up 9th in the Cat 4 race for that. if you read this in time, for today or tomorrow you should try to find me...hope to see you at the races. |

Re: Quad Cities weekend
Can't do the junior races (i'm 18 now, but turn 19 in november...stupid rules).
i raced in the cat 4 races all weekend...today's raced sucked for me. i set up TERRIBLE for the last lap...i was too far from the front of the pack to be able to do anything. on one of the laps a XXX guy broke away and i chased him down and still kept a gap behind me, but the other guy sat up when i caught him and wasn't going to try to stay away...ugh! that cat 1/2 race was pretty sweet...jensen was on fire all weekend (won burlington, 2nd at snake, and 1st at q-c...what a weekend!) |

jensen was riding pretty good. i wish i would have made that break with him. the 1,2 race wasn't hard, but it was very fast, on the last lap when things started to get sketchy i just sat up, i didn't want to crash, very good race though. melon city was a little better for me, i got top 10, but i felt like i could have had top 3, maybe next year. |
