Friday!

Today was another day to ride the course and dial in tire selections. I still can't decide since the course changes hourly with the weather and how many riders tread on it.
Kristi raced her Masters race today and wa off to a great start and settling in when she doulbe flatted after hitting something sharp on the course. She lost a few spots and had to battle back to finish in 6th. Not quite what her goal was for the year, but with a couple of flat tires, what do you do, that's racing. You will have to check her site for the details.
Tonight we had a Bicycle Centers/Collision 1 Team dinner. A good time, and discussed getting ready for tomorrows racing. Steve, Kevin, and Dominique go off at 9:30, and Phil and I hit it at 2:15. Phile and I are a bit nervous and anxious with nothing to lose. We are lining up in the 70's or so out of 190 riders. We have nothing to lose, and are gonna do all we can to work up through the field. They are saying that it will probably snow tonight and the temps are now only barely freezing. This could turn the course to a splattery mud mess, or a few inches of fresh new snow. Either way, we are happy. Bring on the mess!
Whish us luck, it's time to get some rest.
