WP Valley Point to Point
Well, the WP win streak was cut to just a single race, as I came in second this week by about 50 seconds after and hour and forty-nine minutes of racing. I had my first reasonably out of control crash on Lower Cherokee about 15-min into the race, and seriously hit the lower part of my left quad, just about 1/2 inch above the kneecap. It hurt with each pedal stroke, so I really wasn't giving 100% after that little mishap. Anyway, the form seems to be coming along nicely for Nats this coming weekend...

One Step Higher at the Firecracker 50!
With a slight change in the starting order this year, Sara and I were able to pull off the win in the Maverick Co-ed division of the Firecracker 50! She went out to do the first lap with the parade, and I finished it off on the second lap. The weather held off for the most part, with only a few short showers while I was on the course. As usual, the town was packed with people for the holiday festivities, and the Maverick Sports crew put on an amazing race. No, really, they probably have the best feed-zones I've ever seen during a race, not to mention post race food/beers, and a great schwag bag at registration. You can bet that we'll be back next year to defend the title!
