This race was very wet and kind of cold. The course was new and more like a real cyclo cross track. There were some really good guys there from Penn. and Morgantown, including a team from Fat Tire Cyclries. I was competeing in sport men.
At the start of the race the other competetors took a nice sized lead because they always start with the experts. I caught up to the first and second place racers in my category. I had a nice pace going so I just past them and they stayed where they were not trying to keep up with me. They stayed at the same speed while i cought up to the 4th place expert and had my own little race with him.
The entire race I was feeling strong and could feel the win. At the end of the race I had established a nice lead, but this doesn't really show in the times. The only problems i had with this race is that my back brakes went out about the middle of the second lap so i ended up falling alot.
