Next day...
I woke up and ate a breakfast of fruity pebbles before I started to get ready for the race. but as I was getting ready Ricky (mechanic) and James Karthauser (my new coach) pulled in. so we finished breakfast and went for packet pick up. we then came back and got pinned and put our stuff on and rode to the start of the race.
I rolled out and looked at my competition of around 15, 15-18 year olds. As the race started I instantly attacked to see what the field would do. actually just Lawson. and they did nothing so I got a 20 second gap before they reeled me in. once they caught me we made the left hand turn into the 25-30 mph crosswind. At this point I got to the front and put down a considerably hard tempo peeling the field from 15 -7. after The 10-15 min pull I did the field was cooked and Lawson attacked. I got on his wheel and we eventually broke away but I didn't have the energy to pull through so the field caught back on. Then Hank countered Lawson un effectively and the pack was back together. at this point We are going <15.>:-( after around 30 mins of baking in the heat lawson broke away with 2 others in the cross wind and took a flyer for the win.
Recap
don't race in cove when the weather is >100 ;) also bring 4 insulated bottles +feed zone bottles
and congrats to Lawson for winner the 08 15-18 state champ title
