Race Update
Here goes a short update from the racing down here in Arizona. The TT went ok with 14th for myself and Kuhl was 16th.
The road race ended up being a really hard race because of the wind. From mile 2 there was a severe cross wind, we went to the front and instantly were in a group of 12 guys driving it for 2 1/2 laps and then that group split into 4 other guys and myself for another 1/2 a lap or so. By the time the field caught us there was only about 35 guys left. Chris rode great with some KOM bonuses added to his name. That should put him up there in the GC. By the end we were in a group of about 20 coming to the line. We haven't seen results, but we think that Chris was about 8th on the stage and I was about 14th or 15th.
Today is the Crit in downtown. Should be fun and then it's back to Durango. The weather has been great. Yesterday was 83 degrees according to the news. I'm a little red today.
Yours Truly...
