2 Wheel Racing Criterium Race - Rohnert Park
The 2 Wheel Racing Criterium in Rohnert Park (Masters 35+ 4/5 category) went and finished similar to the auburn crit where I was leading or in the top 5 most of the race. However, this time I was still in it with one lap to go. When we crossed the start/finish line with one lap to go I basically went for it. I was out front hoping to avoid a sprint finish since I can't sprint against powerful riders like these. So I kept the pace high but my motor sputtered out with about 100 yards to go and I got 12th or so. I should have reserved more during the race. Also I got caught in no mans land on a prime where i didn't commit to going for it and i was ahead of the pack so I wasted a lot of energy for nothing. I had a great time though. It was fun to warm up and race with Jeff Sawyer.

Dude,
I am going to get a walkie talkie and stick an earphone in your ear. Then I will yell at you when you are on the front the whole time. Just like you had your own team car. I could then manage the time and give you the go ahead on when to move up towards the front.
