Pre-race routine:

Woke up at 4:30 showered, dressed, ate breakfast, and left
When I got to the race I had emptied my car of my bike and stuff. I then tried to fill up my tires the front which I had a FLAT earlier this week filled up fine. the back presta value came out when I tried to loosen it. I then took my only spare and used it for the rear. The only problem I could get the tire back into the rim correctly. A half hour later and pumping up the tire about 10 times someone who parked next to me popped the tire in correctly in about 10 seconds. I finially got to the bake rack and throw my styuff down put on my wetsuit and found my brother.
