Eye Opener


The Madison this past Friday was a bit much for this guy.
I was all worked up all night in anticipation of my ass ripping.
I had a blast but had never felt that pain.
A bit chaotic at first but it settled down. My HR was jacked the entire time. Couldn't recover. We lasted 86 of the 100 laps before we got lapped by the eventual winners twice...Imagine doing 40-50 jumps one right after the next.
It's reminiscent of doing your first REAL P12 crit. Not some weak-ass local crit but the one where dudes you see on TV show up and lay it down.
Pain Cave.
Should fare better next time though. Learning curve.
Friday debut: success (no crash). Hope to progress steadily throughout the season. Only racing the track for 3 years now. Not sure if 35 year olds should take up new sports at this age but oh well.
Good times.
We had a cruiser ride as well this weekend.
Our boy Kuklic likes taking naps.
