Redline Cup

Posted by whitey on 11/3/2007 on whitey's blog

I just finished getting the beat down from riders like Horner, Wicks, Trebon, Powers, Wells, and the Danish National Champion Joachim Parbo. There was a crazy head wind and when I couldn’t hold onto the leaders anymore I was dropped off into no mans land fighting the wind. It didn’t take long to get gobbled up by the second group of fast local riders like myself. With a few exceptions we stayed together for most of the race until the mountain bike legend Travis Brown caught us and blew our group to pieces. I think that happened with about three laps to go and I did my best to hang on but once I was in the wind it was game over. For the first time in my cyclocross racing history I got lapped by the leader. Trebon caught me ¼ lap before the finish line and they pulled me before I entered the finish stretch. Tomorrow is the Boulder Cup and a new day so I hope to at least not get lapped tomorrow.
