Comments:

This was awesome, my first Crit!!!!!! I won the intermediate sprint and came in 6th overall, so 4 points for the sprint, 3 points for the last lap, and 6 points for the overall race with a bonus point for starting. Total 14 points.
What would you do differently?:

Taking the intermediate sprint definetly cost me later, might want to look at the points to figure out what the best strategy is.....
Post race
Warm down:

1 lap then started playing with the kids
