Another great day of cyclocross. Marymoor is a super place for a cross race. The Seattle cylcocross guys created a good course that was was fast, had lots of turns and offered just about nowhere to rest. I question their decision to put in some super high speed barriers about a 100 yards before the finishing line. It seemed like a unnecessary and potentially dangerous obstacle . Perhaps they were hoping for a Joeys Ok moment of there own. The race it self was some more great head to head racing for most of the hour long 7 lap race. Ian Tubbs and Todd Davis (Audi), Rich McClung (Hagens Berman) and myself were locked together for the first 4 laps. Lap 5 we dropped Todd. Ian dropped Rich and me. Rich dropped me. Lap 6 and 7 rode solo chasing Rich and looking over my shoulder to check my gap to Todd. Finished in 3rd place. A great start to the series. Strava stuff is here SCX #1 Marymoor. September was a good month! Next weekend will be a off weekend. After that little rest it is on to the meat of the season.
Cheers, TMT
