Memorial Day Criterium

posted in: Criterium, Race report | 0

When I arrived in Morgan Hill I was met sunny skies and some wind, which only got worse as the day went on, and a bunch of free stuff. Began warming up, and strategizing. I have been given permission to disclose my highly ingenious plan. Plan A was to get in a break but not generate it. Plan B was to sit behind the main sprinters and hope they faded in the head wind and come around them. These plans unfortunately did not work because every attack I went with was immediately chased down by Specialized.  As we went on to the last lap my poor position meant that when Tieni Duro and Specialized got their trains going and gaps began forming, I was too far back for the sprint.
