took off and tried to maintain a better than 8min mile pace. Not knowing the course I was somewhat cautious. Pretty flat so I kept a good pace. After 1.5 miles I stepped it up a little.

Comments:

I was pretty happy with this bike, but started to run out of steam in the last few miles. Back was tightening up and making it uncomfy...

I knew that if I was in the 20 range, the rest of my age group was killing it too...Being in the last wave made the bike a blast. I was a passing maniac...only 4 people passed me in the whole race. Sporting the Donkey top got me a few "carrot" calls...
What would you do differently?:

nothing but go faster...

took me awhile to get the "bike seat out of my backside" feeling and waking up my feet...just cruised and kicked it on the final downhill.

nothing
Post race
Warm down:
