BAD BLOGGER...

too many races to write about, so here are some results from the past few weeks:

tour de murrieta - stage 1(criterium): 26th. lame/unacceptable. i have lots of excuses for that one, but the fact is i simply didn't adapt well to the conditions.

tour de murrieta - stage 2: 16th(circuit race). little better, but not great. both days had full 100 rider fields. there's one way to put it in a positive light. i finished 18th overall in the points.

del mar criterium series - race 1: 13th place. decent, but not great. still improving. this just in: racing at night is fun.
LA circuit race: i don't even know where i finished here. we'll just call it "ass." other than having my life flash before my eyes twice within 5 seconds during the final sprint(i gave up after nearly being taken out by the same guy TWICE at 40mph), i felt the race went great. too bad i have nothing to show for it. except this picture.

del mar criterium series - race 2: 9th. still improving. i learned something about the value of teammates and timing my sprint here. something clicked.

ontario criterium series - race 2: that's ontario, california. raced in two different classes here. 30+ 4/5 where i got 5th, and 4/5 where i came in 4th. these were pretty snazzy results compared to how i'd been doing. and like i said, whatever it was that clicked in my head during the second del mar race made all the difference today.

more details to come about each race.
