2012 Salida Classic Stage Race
Did a stage race last weekend in Salida Colorado. TT on Friday, Criterium on Sat. and Road Race on Sunday. Short results are:
- TT - 4th place (disappointed with this, but no warm up and a couple of poor equipment choices may have been my problem)
- Crit - 8th place Super fun crit race. Wide corners, decent pavement. I led the last 3 laps until the sprint finish, and since I have no sprint, I watched 7 guys pass me in the last 150 meters.
- Road Race - 3rd place. I initiated a three man breakawy on the 4th lap of a 6 lap, 5.7 mi course that had 500 feet of climbing in the first 3 miles. We stayed away, but again, I did most of the work, and I have no sprint.
Really enjoyed the stage race format. I may take a year off from triathlon next year and do more bike racing,
