Thanks to Chris for putting together a good course to test you early season fitness. Needless to say, I didn't have the legs. The first "warmup" lap was a solid warmup. After the first lap, Ryan and Rich got away early and maintained a gap despite Jeremy's coaching, and Stubna's and my efforts to pull them back. The start of the third lap was a little slower, but when we neared the base of the real climb, the pace picked back up. Grimm Sr., George, Rich, and I got shelled at the second pitch and lost 200m on the group. George motored through the crest of the climb and pulled out away from the rest of us. Rich, Grimm Sr, and I worked together trying to pull the group back in, but never lost or gained any ground through the rollers. It was nice looking at the backs of those fine riders the rest of the way back in. Good clean squad fun for a Saturday. Thanks again Jeremy for the advice and thanks Chris for a great ride.
