chi cx #4

So just a recap of the race today. The course was awsome 3/4 of it was rolling "real single track no sissy stuff with a couple berms thrown in. I got the hole shot into the single track and railed the pace. Pete stanilous came up and rode the 2nd section like a mad man but tripping over a baricade took out his chances early in the race. So I led the race in the single track getting a small lead each lap only to be chased down on the open windy rough sections. About 30 min into the 45 minute race I decided to give it a go and ripped through the tight stuff opening a 10 second gap before the open section. I pushed hard and opened up a sizable lead enough to hold off a hard charging Kip Spaude.
It felt good to get a win again after losing saturday. Damn those stairs.
