Gate City Grind Time Trial

Threw down what I thought was a decent time last night, but only managed 19th place out of 42 cat 3 riders. Those guys are really fast.

Yeah, but you smoked more than half of the riders, and the first 18 finishers didn't sleep well last night out of worry.

The TT was stage 2 of a 3 stage race. I rocked the house this afternoon with a 4th place finish in the criterium around Holt Arena, so that makes up for the TT in my book. (I was less than half a wheel away from 3rd!) I'm not sure yet what my overall placing was with all the races combined... waiting on official results to be posted.

Did someone say Holt? STEVE HOLT!

I was just wondering if there's room in that helmet for some cyborg gear.

These are some seriously impressive pics and stats.

I bet I could squeeze one in there. ;) It could be against the rules though and considered a "radio". The higher level categories (Pro, 1 & 2) are allowed ear piece radios and will get constant updates from other team members or people stationed in cars or on the road. I'll have to upgrade out of Cat 3 before I get to have that much fun though. :)
