Comments:

We arrived at Waterville Valley and unpacked then walked over to the start - lots of serious racers and a lot of first timers. They had two 'holders' so you could get clipped in and then you were pushed off. It was really fun! I was very happy to have the 8th slot in the order - it's good to have a last name that starts at the beginning of the alphabet!
Post race
Warm down:

Group Dinner - can't recommend the restaurant - then back to the house.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I didn't check my breaks! Evidently during the car ride up my rear brake shifted and was rubbing on one side of my wheel - i'm slow but i knew that i was going slower than normal!!!

Event comments:

There were a few turns at the end that required heaving breaking - finishing on the main road where we started would have been a little safer for the riders racing into the finish shoot. Overall though - a really great experience and kick off to a fun weekend!
