E stigma crit 123

short and to the point

yippee. Today is going to be my first 123 race off of the track. as I got ready I watched Stefan win the pro race against Tyler Hamilton by winning a sprint in a 4 man break.

I got my # and pinned my jersey and started to get ready for my race.
at the start of the race I was at the back and tried to move up to the front and the first thing I noticed was the speed was substantially faster then any other race I've done. for the part of the race that I was in it took 20 mins to get to the front of the pack and I was able to hold position there for another 10 mins before I figured I was going to accelerate out of a tough corner and after I did this I was countered by none other then Stefan Rothe. after this attack my legs were shot and I dropped off the back and watched my dads race which he did good in. but he should go into detail on his blog

recap
don't attack the 123. don't race with Stefan

special thanks to Dad again for taking me to another race
