Early Bird Crit (Pro-1-2-3)

Saturday was more of a recovery day for me anyways, after doing hill repeats in my 39x14 on Friday. So I just did an easy spin.

Sunday I rode down to Fremont and did the last EB crit. Had to get my feet wet before Valley of the Sun. It was fast and fun. I felt pretty good. Got in several breakaway attempts and had no problems

I wasn’t exactly thrilled with a 3:30 start time at first but came to realize what the pro riders must already know. The late start time can be a blessing in disguise. I was able to socialize the night before and sleep in with enough time to make it to the race and get in a decent warm up. I initially wanted to arrive super early and do a pre-race ride but some technical difficulties
