I want to tell you guys about some not-really-scientific analysis I have done over the last 5 minutes or so.
2010 CX Season:
Charm City day 1 (C race) - 555.99 points
Charm City day 2 (C race) - 553.45 points
Charm City day 2 (B race - 2/3/4) - 552.17 points
THEN
Ed Sander C race - 431.12 points
2011 CX Season:
Nittany Lion B race - 2/3/4 - 514.57 points
Charm City day 1 B race - 2/3/4 - 524.09 points
Charm City day 2 B race - 2/3/4 - 501.38 points
THEN
Tacchino this upcoming Sunday.
I think it took me longer to type all that out than to come up with the theory that the 4th race of the season is where I learn how to race some CX.
Sunday was more fun than Saturday, as racing goes. Saturday was very slippery. Sunday I managed to at least feel like I was sticking my bike through corners. Saturday we had some solid team support though.
I'm still out of shape. I'm not that worried about it. It's gonna be a long season. I should finally have my tire/wheel situation sorted out this upcoming weekend.
LOOK AT THIS HILARIOUS PICTURE. I MIGHT EAT YOUR FACE.I've said it before - I can carry the bike by any point, no form required. I carried it up the stairs by the headtube one day.
