Cycling race (Cross) 20:00 [3]
Reckless Cross in Rockville, MD.
Wow this was bad. The course was very very fast and was pretty much just cornering (nothing technical) but I was a mess. I started off well but immediately after that was very sloppy. Kept almost wiping out and losing my grip. That's kind of my fault because I didn't have enough time to pre-ride the course so I didn't know what pressure to set my wheels to. They were too stiff which made my riding sketchy. On the second lap some lady cut me off and I hit the deck, luckily on grass but unluckily going downhill. After another half a lap I called it quits and pulled myself out of the race. I was miserable and 10 spots back from where I should have been so there was no point in doing another 25 minutes.
Sad. Hopefully next weekend is better.
Also didn't think I hit the ground hard but my entire right side of my body aches and I have lots of bruises...Just a rough day of racing.
