Out of Comfort Zone - Dirt Crit 2

Always good to have this co-pilot join me.




Threat of rain all day long, it had to finally let loose sometime and it did right before the A race.
So a warm up in the rain on a slippery hard packed trail was in order. Out of my comfort zone but determined to make the best of it while working on getting better in conditions like this.

After a few pre laps



Race went surprisingly well. I did not not try to start with the lead group today, rather I elected to settle in about 3/4 of the way back in the filed of 45.

As the laps went on the conditions got better and I started to get in a good rhythm moving my way up.




Even had sprint to the line for 15th on the day.



Not near as fast or as hard an effort as last week, average speed was 1.0 mph slower.

Springfield is next on Sunday.
