The Seal Is Broken

Last time I raced I wore arm warmers and knee warmers, that was in December. I raced this weekend in the same gear. Crazy. After months of one thing after another keeping me off the bike it felt really good to be out there “turning the pedals in anger” again. I told myself that I would just sit in and try to finish with the group. Yeah right. I just couldn’t help myself and attempted to bridge solo to the break. I dangled for a lap or 2 and almost dropped myself. So much for sitting in. I did manage to stay with the pack and not crash. A pretty good return to racing. GOnna try my hand at the State RR this weekend. Should be fun.

I rode home got a bite and came back to watch the fast guys play. When I got there T-Bird was driving a small break that had a pretty good gap with about an hour to go. 60 minutes later, all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn’t bring T-Bird back to the field again. That is what is called a clinic folks.
