Rode out with Dad and Brad. Got in an early breakfast and was ready to go on time

Rode the start and end of the course twice. Did 3x accelerations to above race pace and high cadence to start the LA clearing cycle. Stayed warm on the trainer and hit the start area about 3 minutes before the race

Comments:

Fun to do an all out effort without having to worry about running!!!

This was the first longer ride in the updated position from a recent FIST fit

Fet good throughout - might have went a little to hard on the outbound for the amount of headwind on the way back but I had to catch and pass my brother in law since he was talking smack before the race (put 4:02 into him...)
What would you do differently?:

See above - little less on the way out
Post race
Warm down:

kept riding around for a while and then stretched

What limited your ability to perform faster:

training

Event comments:

The fire department was late to show up and a biker almost got tagged when a fireman was on his cell vs watching out for traffic
