Nampa Cross
Interesting course today -- no run up (no hills at that park) and no barriers. Lots of tall, wet grass and tight corners. I rode as hard as I could but 1.5 laps in I overlapped wheels and went down and lost the group. I spent the rest of the day pretty much on my own, but having fun.
Yesterday the weather looked perfect, but then all the snow melted and it was a pretty spectacular day. Much too nice for cross, but I won't complain. Sunny and not too cold!

Great Works Ladd
Ladd forgot to mention that when he went down I was being a sucker off of his wheel. When he went down the guy that was in front of him attacked and I followed. We put a huge gap on Ladd and I thought there is no way for him to get back on. (That was not my intention I was just trying to stay with someone.) Anyways with 3 laps to go here come Ladd like a rocket ship flying past me and gaining ground on people in front. I don't know how many people he passed but he was moving.
very creative writing!
words like "rocket" and "flying" don't really apply to my riding, but I guess I identify with "sucker"! Half way through the race my personal goal was not to be lapped by Richard, and I was really happy to pull that off! (Rob was somewhere way ahead of both of us...)
