Comments:

A great time, a great event. Staff and competitors were friendly and helpful. I am definitely going to do this again!

Toughest thing was trying to keep myself in the drops.
What would you do differently?:

Do better shifting.
Keep my Cadence @ or above 100
Focus on pacing
Try to get a drink somewhere in the ride
Get Aerobars... staying in the drops was tough.
Get a Jersey so my running shirt is not flapping in the wind like a sail


Post race
Warm down:

Hooters for dinner!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The engine needs to be better....higher cadence more endurance
