We left last Wednesday for Kansas. we just pre road the TT course on Thursday and kept it easy. Then on Friday was the TTT, it was a hard course, we took 11th overall not bad but we were hoping to do better. It was the first time Conor and I actually raced on our TT bikes, I could see a big difference in how i road. Then on Saturday was the RR it was about 85 miles or so, it took a little under 4 hours. There was a 1.5 mile section of dirt a lot of people flatted and crashed. Going into the third lap i was feeling great and up towards the front then a pile up happened up right in front of me and i couldn't get my speed back up again i was so mad. i ended up taking 22nd with 90 or so riders starting. Then on Sunday was the Crit, i felt alright but a little tired i was about half way in the pack, too far back. So i tried to move up. then with 3 laps to go there was a crash right in front of me so then i was chasing i ended up 44th overall. The team took 4th overall and Chris took 1st for the individual ommunium. We were only 6 points away from third so i am mad about that but what can you do. Now i am going to take it easy for a little then start racing down in Denver. And o ya by the way no more euro Mullet! These are some pics from nats, one with Conor, Chris and I, then one of me finishing the road race, and the other one is the crash i got stuck in.
