    Super D was like getting beat by a 16 year old boy named Cody in full Spandex!

    I taco'd a wheel! (can finally check that one off my list of things to do)

    Unfortunately this was a couple turns away from the finish and a guy in my class was able to pass me as I was getting up from my crash. That's the frustrating part to an otherwise good race, but that stupid new climb can suck a lemon. I'd rather not go repeat that again at anything other than a casual pace.

    Super D beat me like an old rug.

    It was hot out there too, maybe they should consider changing the name from Winter Series to something else.

    I will be there tomorrow to watch, my 10 year old son wants to start racing and I want him to check it out first. Bringing out my roadie buddy and his two sons, and my dad hopefully in a few months they will all want to ride.

    Shut your mouth! If you can't climb then go race some Criteriums or something! That course is a real MTB race course. Good stuff! Hope Donny doesn't listen to the whiny people. The course today is what MTB racing should be like..... HARD!

    We don't race the same class. :D

    Even if I had a crappy day on the bike, I don't think I would fault that course. It was good stuff.

    What was the course? Was it like the Cat1 or Pro course they ran back at Nationals last year? Just curious but it sounds like some did not like going up the big hill today. I'm looking to get out there this week and run some hot laps of the course to see where I stand and perhaps compare lap times with those who raced today.
