Day 1 of many....
A six corner flat crit; perfect! Jenna and I lined up at precisely
1:45pm at the start line of what was to be a very fast 45 minutes.
Sergio showed up out of nowhere with ice cold water bottles (thanks
Sergio)! Heat and cobblestones were the two major factors in the race.
Tibco brought four riders and attacked until they got off the front
with Colavita. The rest of the field splintered itself chasing, but
eventually came together for a field sprint. Inside one to go I was
ecstatic that I only had to go through cobbles and pot holes one last
time.
The sprint happened with half a lap to go; I found myself in a very
strung out field and held my position to the line. I got 11th and
Jenna 14th. We both are looking forward to day 2 of ICC Superweek
tomorrow. Stay tuned for more action coming to you straight from Chi-
town, where fireflies reign supreme and lakes remind me of the ocean.
Now, dinner.
Sincerely,
Julia
