Pre-race routine:

had pancakes for breakfast and got my son out of bed early and took him along, which was a minor victory in itself. Turned out he really enjoyed it and wants to ride now.
Event warmup:

the course was less than a mile from my house so I managed to get there early and take some practice laps to check out the course. Did some stretching and had some gummy bears. Was very excited since this was my first bike race in over 20 years

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I want to practice my downhill since I feel that is my Achilles heal. I felt strong enough to hang with the leaders in other phases.

Event comments:

This was put on by psycowpath, and they did very well and was well attended. They had free hamburgers afterwards and was organized well. The only thing I can think of to be a negative was they took 2 hours after the race to post the results, other than that I give the event an A+.
