Me coming in after the last-lap crash at the Walla Walla crit last month:
- number torn - check
- bloody elbows/hole in new skinsuit - check
- ripped up ego - yup!
I was so pissed it happened... still am. How can we get two turns from the end of a race and then somebody had to go and F it all up?! I thought we were about to sprint, then I was on the ground.
That's racing..

Can't wait for Ballard! Rain or shine, I'll be there. You?
Look for me coming out of the last turn in the top 3-5.. if not, something went very wrong!
But all I'm really looking for is a clean crit finish, something that has eluded me so far this year.

OTB of the Lake Auburn 3 RR. Broke a spoke on one of the climbs in lap 3 and tried to catch back on unsuccessfully for 33 miles. Lonely day in the saddle.

Leading the pack out of corner 4 in the final sprint @ Ballard yesterday:
Uh on, they're all coming around now.. or trying:
The finish was closer than I thought!

It would have been nice to stay wheels down but I'll take what I can get!
