This weekend was the whirly bird cross race, put on by Guys cycling. It was a really cool race, that had two sets of barriers and a super tight, super fun spiral. I brought my friend, Zach, who had never been to a cross race and i think he really enjoyed it. This was my first cross race in the rain and i really enjoyed it. I dont know why but i really like riding in the rain, i just always feel good. I raced B's, with Jake Davidson, Matt Harris, and Bryon Kremer, and apparently they had a good battle. It seems in my cross races so far i go out really hard, fade in the middle, then come back strong for the finish. I need to work on keeping up my speed in the middle, and pacing my self at the beginning. I had a great start weaseling my way to the front line. I went out hard and got a good position in the start of the race and was feeling good. In the middle people passed me, but in the end i got some of them back. I ended up 12Th out the 40 or so i think. Their was a really cool low flying helicopter there. Supposedly the video the chopper was taking was live in europe.
Here is a video of the race
