10-11 Track racing Endurance night

Long racing mean easy money. Or so I thought.

The promoters cancelled the Jrs and and the masters and combined them with the 123s. which to me is awesome. any ways the first race was a 30 lap scratch. after a couple laps me Lawson and Alex got off the front and started working. I was soon dropped from the break and finished from the pack.

The next race was the 60 lap points race. I went off the front with on other person and I got the first two sprints and then was caught by Lawson and Alex so the four of us worked of a bit before Alex and Lawson dropped me. I was then caught by the field and was with them for the next couple laps before we were lapped by the leaders After the race finished I figured out that I actually got 3rd place in that race.so I'm still exited from that

The final race was a 75 lap scratch. I sat in and got dropped and lapped by Alex and Lawson. Anyways I attacked with 22 laps to go to try to get a lap back. at one point I brought back 3/4s a lap but I was soon caught with 6 laps to go. I then sprinted for 6th

Recap- all I can say is I love the track and every body should atleast try it once

10-10 track racing

Today was the first time I raced the track since July and couldn't wait. Track is one of the funnest things about bike racing. When I went to the track I saw that all my track friends where there and that there was a small group of racers. As the races stared I did 10 lap scratch race that I got slapped in against Lawson and Danial Walker. Then I did a 3 lap handicap that I totally just got shredded. I then had a very good 12 lap points race with sprints every 3 laps. I took 1 lap flyers in the 1st and last sprint points and got those. the next race was a miss n out where the last person from every lap is pulled. I got pulled first in an attempt to help a teammate ;). I then did an 18 lap tempo in the JRs that I had to pull my self out of due to my wheel coming loose and becoming a safety hazard Then in the final race of the day me and Dan did the 50 lapper. Our goal was to attack Lawson till we dropped him. unfortunately Lawson dropped both of us in the last 10 laps and won.

Recap

I'm starting to find the weaknesses of a few of the riders at the track and I'm going to win next time

Chapple hill states road race

Ok I can finally blog.

After waking up at around 4 am me and my teammate Rich drive out to Chapple Hill for the Road Race state Championships. On the drive up I was Mostly in my own world going back and forth between my consciouses and sub-conscious. Once me and Rich got to the race we registered and got our numbers and got our selfs pinned up. We then met up with Dan and started warming up. Our plan was a simple one, don't do anything till the last hour of the race.

Well the race started and me and my Team started at the front of the race. The race stared slow and Dan rolled off the front with a few other people from the group. Now me and Rich had to start blocking. After the first couple laps we were cruising at a fair pace around the course. Nothing too fast or too slow and I sat near the front and received Bottles from my Teammate Stephanie who was working the feed zone for the team. After 64 miles of blocking the break was finally caught and the entire group was back together with around 10 miles till the finish. around now I was pretty tired from all the blocking I was doing and could tell the energy was draining from my legs for the last couple miles no-one did anything and when the sprint finally came down I was going backwards. I pushed my self as hard as I could in the sprint and I managed to hold onto an 18 place finish.

Recap

Never block. Just kidding. well I don't regret anything i enjoyed the entire race and enjoyed all 3.5 hours of it. I just wasn't properly prepared for a 76 miler after Ike. Well Race season is finally over
